#1 So a virus escapes one of their weapons labs. The virus infect America. China decides to limit or stop all med shipments to the US, bringing the national health levels down. And this is called business and not biological warfare??

#4 Time to move back production facilities tio Ameica and let China dry on the sun. On the short term China could win on the long term she loses.

We were completly dependent on a software. At oe point the provider sharply raised prices. We were fporced to kow-tow but we immediately started looking for alternatives and now we have abandonned it.

#5 p.s. Private western firms cannot compete with state-supported Chinese manufacturers. Support your industrialists. Long term exclusive contracts, or whatever works.

#6 A couple months back I couldn't get losartan for my BP because the meds (made in India) contained FDA unapproved amounts of carcinogens. Precursors apparently from China. FDA solution was to relax carcinogen standards. Guess I'll take my chances on cancer vs another stroke.

#7 ^Why not look for other sources of amlodipine, MM?

#8 On amlodipine also. Would like to just go back to minoxidil oral and enalapril / lasix.

#9 I think when this is over China is going to look around and realize she has no friends, customers, or even partners.

But at least her protests/riots stopped, for now. If the CIA had anyone with talent when this is over they'd be spreading the rumor that the Chinese leaders started it to kill their own protesters.

#10 I don't really blame the Chinese. We did it to ourselves.

#11 You mean China won’t even take the extra effort to send bogus drugs to America?

#12 China is breaking their own number one rule - this is bad for business.
