Almost 300 children were subjected to experimental drug trials at mother and baby homes in Ireland in the 1960s and 70s.
In one of the trials, at five Dublin care homes and orphanages in the 1970s, 80 children became unwell after allegedly being given a vaccine intended for cattle.
The news comes as the Government decides what powers and scope a potential inquiry into mother and baby homes could have.
Christy was one of the children given the experimental vaccines at Bessborough in Co Cork.
