However, if you do read the CNN article I linked(which should be free from bias), you'll go to the following paragraph: The children were infected through transfusions. During the trial of the nurses, a French scientist testified that poor hygiene at the hospital likely led to the contamination of the blood used in the transfusions. He said the contamination dated to 1997 -- two years before the Bulgarians were hired to work in Libya. Hi Boris, obviously I don’t want to go into an argument as to who did what when…

The facts remain that 400 and more children got infected with HIV in the hospital where the accused worked and trying to convince the public that their infection was the result of poor hygienic conditions is pure nonsense because those nurses and doctor were sent there as skilled professionals to guard exactly against that kind of situation.
I could understand if one child or even two had gotten infected by accident, but 400 infected children all by “accident” and negligence goes against all logic.
Let me just say that if such a thing would happen to even a single person in a western coutry hospital, the doctor or nurse responsible, if only for negligence, would face severe consequences.
Granting full pardon and walking away free from such a charge is the biggest disgrace and the deepest low that human hypocrisy can sink into. Lately it seems to me that doctors are no longer taking the Hippocratic Oath, but a “Hypocritical Oath”.
