So now the leftist theory is that Trump want us to have access to HCQ so he and his friends will make profits
From a drug with no patent produced all over the world and selling for about $20 for a 5 day covid treatment
Right......
Meanwhile remdesivir is selling at $3000 a dose and has a patent owned by....and the stockholders are....
The stupid is so strong it burns.
Its one thing to lament how much of our med products come from China but to actually do something about it...?
Kodak will manufacture med chem PRECURSORS to a lot of medications. If someone wants to make a drug that is off-patent like HCQ - bravo and good luck!
Not a ton of money to be made making generic drugs that India is already making.
At least they are producing something useful, unlike the Obama cronies that received millions in taxpayer money that produced not a darn thing, useful or not useful.
So what! The Dumbs make their cronies rich all the time.
It’s a loan not a grant. Previous pols have allowed China to be a sole source of supply for many things including pharmaceuticals. If Kodak does or doesn’t get er done they still have to pay it back.
If Kodack is successful and helps the USA break it’s dependence on Chinese supplied drugs and medication, it will be a great achievement.
Compare that to the nearly $600 million Obama flushed down Solyndra drain.
Taxpayers have lost nothing with this deal.
Solyndra, now thats a very different story.
Right, 0bama?
Where’s the forensic accounting on King Fauxi?
Russia, Russia, Russia......
Who are the retards spewing this moronic propaganda? Never heard of these losers.
Kodak is manufacturing it? How long will it take for them to develop? (Couldn’t resist)
So let me get this straight. The CEO of the long suffering Kodak chemical company uses his talents to negotiate a deal to make API chemicals in this country to break our dependence on the CCP supply chain. The Kodak board legally awards him stock options as a bonus subject to the deal closing with the government. When the deal closes the stock and options values go up and everybody wins including the American people.
Isn’t this how every company operates? The CEO should be rewarded for his performance. I don’t see how any of this is a crime. If Kodak is unable to supply the APIs or goes out of business like Solyndra his Kodak stock will be worth less than it was before the deal.
BTTT!
Obamas cronies made 535 million from the Solyndra scam without a word of criticism. And Solyndra ended up producing nothing.
If the other manufacturers are unwilling to supply a 60cent/treatment medicine, because they want to supply a $1000/treatment medication instead, what should Trump do?
Just let the private companies hide an incredibly cheap treatment so they can sell a very expensive medicine or contract out to a private company that is willing to produce the cheaper treatment?
The other alternative is for communism and the government producing the treatment itself.
Kodak was never a camera company, they were a film company. Film is made from chemicals produced by Kodak. The graphics art company I worked for in the 1970s bought thousands of boxes of 20" X 24" sheets of Kodak film each year.
