...And yet, contrary to your earlier hyperbole-drenched rant, vaccines are still being made.
Hmmm...
"Nearly 40 years ago, there were about 26 makers of all types of vaccines. [See the figure.] The number fell to 17 by 1980. Now, the number of vaccine makers supplying the United States has dropped to only four. There is only a single manufacturer of the vaccines for eight diseases. There are only two major makers of flu vaccines. When there are so few producers of each vaccine, problems at a single plant can create shortages.
In recent years, the United States has come to depend on overseas vaccine plants to provide an increasing share of the supply. One company, the Chiron Corporation, prepared 46 million doses — almost half of the anticipated supply for the United States — at its plant in Liverpool, England. However, this year’s production run was rejected for import by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) because of contamination problems."
But we have plenty of people making beer!
