The Best Stories You've nEver Read #8

This piece from the  Los Angeles Times will
tear your heart out. It's about the dozens of babies at LA's Cedars-Sinai Hospital who contracted HIV through blood transfusions in the 1980s before hospital officials could trace the source of the
contamination to tainted blood donations. Many children didn't live long; but others remain alive today. The father of one child who died at age 11 has been on a mission for more than a decade to hold the hospital accountable. Hampering Bruce Kasper's  quest is the fact that some of the survivors are keeping their infections a secret for fear of being stigmatized and shunned. But he has found an ally in one young man who wants some answers.
