Anti D

Does anyone suspect they caught hep C from Anti D. It’s my only risk factor I can’t think of anything else?

  1. I don't think we have much info on that particular series of events, it may be a little before some of the times of our current userbase. Was there anything else that might be able to help you figure it out that we can provide, info wise? Keep on keepin' on, DPM

  2. Hi . There were incidents in Ireland in 1977, 1978, 1991 and 1994 involving a contaminated batch of anti-D immune globulin. Here are articles about them: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/10210705/ and https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/10341334/. I did some light research and didn't find anything about similar incidents in any other countries. Do you think you might have received blood from one of those batches? - Lori (Team Member)
