President Joe Biden’s inept leadership has spawned tragic tentacles as supply chain shortages threaten to kill cancer and COVID-19 patients unable to receive life-saving drugs.
The FDA currently lists 109 drugs in short supply nationally.
Three of the top five medications shortages are drugs used for chemotherapy, heart conditions and antibiotics.
One of the scarce drugs is the anti-inflammatory tocilizumab, used by both cancer and COVID-19 patients. The scarcity has forced physicians to ration drugs. Dr. Patrick Jackson, an infectious-disease physician gives tocilizumab to chemotherapy patients while denying COVID patients because there simply isn’t enough to go around.
Brian Spoehlhof, assistant pharmacy manager at the medical center, said the hospital has no choice but to ration drugs. Spoehlhof said, "it’s impossible for him to restock inventory because new supplies are not being delivered. By the time I come in, we have a new list of new medications that are short."
Pharmacists across the country are also reporting shortages for drugs: insulin, oxycodone and Adderall.
The pandemic and resulting lockdowns exacerbated a decade-long drug shortage that began in 2011 when Barack Obama was president.
However, the latest supply chain disruptions are worsened by Biden’s policies, including an unreasonable vaccine mandate resulting in numerous workers quitting or being fired.
President Joe Biden’s recent sweeping vaccine requirements for as many as 100 million Americans is results in some truckers quitting their jobs. In addition, numerous hospital workers have quit or were fired because of their opposition to vaccine mandates.
Thus, Biden’s vaccine mandate has further stymied a lagging economy and intensified a supply chain disruption preventing cancer and COVID patients from getting the medication they need to survive.
Meanwhile, vaccine mandates are also escalating crime waves in Democrat-run cities as police officers quit or are fired en masse for opposing forced injections.

Stock up on your dewormers, folks.
As long as they are vaccinated, they should be fine.

But someone is enjoying his ice cream.
Well, it’s more important to make sure the truckers are vaccinated by mandate than life saving drugs, gasoline, heating oil, food and a host of other things if they strike over it.
