Show Notes

In this bonus episode of 'All About Business,' James is joined by Journalist, Entrepreneur and Tech CEO Sue Douglas. She delves into a chilling investigation from the 1980s when, as a young medical correspondent she uncovered a story about potentially AIDS-contaminated blood used for transfusions, risking public health.

She describes the challenges, including government hesitation, media backlash, and the impact of her ground-breaking report that led to a public inquiry 40 years later.
