"I was expendable" the blood scandal in Warrington
Available for over a year
For 35 years, Dena Peacock could not understand why she felt constantly exhausted, unwell and depressed. After repeated trips to her GP, the now 60-year-old from Warrington was eventually told that she had contracted the potentially fatal Hepatitis C virus. Dena is one of 30,000 victims infected by contaminated blood products in the 1970s and 1980s. Photo: Getty.
