Each person affected will have a choice to determine whether they wish to be part of the class or to opt out and litigate their claim individually.
What occurred is a global tragedy whose full impact in terms of the number of lives lost and pain and grief caused to countless families has yet to be fully measured.

 Blood coagulation in hemophilia A and hemophilia C.
Thus, coagulation in hemophilia A blood at 25 pmol/L TF is impaired, with significantly slower thrombin generation than normal during the propagation phase; this reduced thrombin appears to affect FPA production and factor V activation more profoundly than platelet activation.
However, even at these low TF concentrations, significant thrombin is generated in the propagation phase after formation of the initial clot in hemophilia C blood.
Differences in platelet activation (osteonectin release) between normal and factor VIII-deficient blood were small, with the midpoint of the profiles observed within 1 minute of each other.
