Wow: Bayer knowingly sold AIDS-tainted medicine (to Canada even)

Watch this short news video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XS3mhjt7TrY

They apparently knew it was tainted, and when the US government figured out it was tainted, what Bayer did was give the medicine some kind of heat treatment that made the HIV undetectable.

Then they kept selling it outside the US (mostly to kids, no less!) for at least another year... to Canada, France, Japan, Italy, and many other countries :S
