This is becoming a seriously dreadful habit.

Japan Times : State names hospitals in blood scandal

The health ministry on Thursday disclosed the names of 6,916 hospitals and 17 medical suppliers believed to have stocked a hepatitis C-tainted blood product that caused one of the largest medical disasters in Japan's postwar history.
...
Of the 6,933 groups listed, 6,611 have been contacted by the ministry and reported that they had stocked the coagulant.
Not the first time such "mistakes" happen in the greedy and careless Japanese hospitals :

It is estimated that between 1980 and 2001, 290,000 people were given fibrinogen to treat such conditions as hemophilia. More than 10,000 people are believed to have been infected.
...
When the government in 1996 named the hospitals that had stocked HIV-contaminated blood products, it made sure that each hospital sent a notice to all current and former patients to be tested for HIV. Back then, the scandal involved about 2,000 hospitals.
...
But with infected fibrinogen, more than 25 percent of all medical institutions in Japan carried it at that time.
and the government and ministry of jutice visibly protects the hospitals ('the companies') rather than the victims, as is common practice in Japan.

Also, the hepatitis-infected victims are still in the courts, with no out-of-court settlements in the works. In the HIV cases, the mostly hemophiliacs infected by blood products that were not properly heat-sterilized reached damages settlements with the government several months before the hospital names were disclosed.

"While the government might be hesitant to admit it, it seems to be reluctant to take action for fear of having more victims turn up and join the suits," he said. "This is a coverup."
