From the founder of Factor 8
Factor 8 was founded by Jason Evans in 2016 during his investigation into the death of his father, Jonathan, who was infected with HIV and Hepatitis C through Factor VIII treatment.
Jason’s search for evidence developed into a campaign that helped secure the Infected Blood Inquiry and the establishment of a comprehensive compensation scheme. He stood down as Factor 8’s Director in January 2025.
His forthcoming book, A Son Never Forgets: Exposing the Infected Blood Scandal, tells the full story of that investigation and the campaign that followed.
