"The Chicoms supply nearly all United States medicine – including penicillin, vitamin C, and virtually every other generic prescription and over-the-counter product,”
“Nobody knows about how dependent we are on the basic components to make our medicine. This is mostly about generics, which are 90 percent of our medicines. We had to find a cheaper way to make them and so it was outsourced to China,” she said. “This is global – there is a global chokehold on the chemicals, the precursors to make the key ingredients in our medicines.”
In 2001, when the United States “opened up free trade and China joined WTO, within the next year we lost our last aspirin plant. We lost our ability to make vitamin C. We don’t make the ascorbic acid anymore. That’s when the last penicillin plant closed in 2004.”
The U.S. is currently even incapable of producing a generic like penicillin or aspirin because of its core components, the acetylsalicylic acid in the ascorbic.
“We cannot make it here” because “China cheats with our medicines and cartels. They form these cartels, they dump it on the global market at below-market prices and they drove everybody out.”
