“What about parts for your car like brake pads or windshield wipers?”

I did get brakes, and belts, but I keep forgetting about the blades. Guess that’s today’s project!

What’s really going to get people’s attention will be the back-end of this virus, as China gets back to work. They’ll have to first concentrate on priority items, and spare auto parts for US customers won’t be all that high on the list - so it may be a few years until they get around to them.

if you listen to Chinese propaganda, 90% of their factories are up and running and they are producing tens of millions of masks per week. But they’re only going to export to their Asian ‘friends’. (as China tries to firm up an axis of power)

I think China will be slow to return to production of meds for the US.

For spite mainly.

And because now they can.

I’m just as concerned that China devolves into some sort of political morass though after. And producing meds for export becomes an afterthought.
