America is no longer a free enterprise country when consumers are forced to used Chinese products.

Why are we still paying the Chinese to provide us with contaminated products? We should ban all imports of food, medicine and other similar products from China.

The press is using a wrong adjective to describe this event. The drug was not “contaminated” but “doctored”. It was not because the production facility or a worker was contaminated. I remember recently reading that a substitute ingredient was found in the medication. This other ingredient was chemically engineered to pass the required testing before the manufacturing process. The substitute ingredient was very much cheaper than the specified ingredient. This was a willful & criminal act.

I still wonder what the last paragraph on this article means:

"Contaminated products from China have been an ongoing worry for the FDA. If the heparin contamination turns out to be deliberate, it would be reminiscent of last year's scandal when a Chinese company was charged with adding the toxic chemical melamine to an ingredient used in U.S. pet food that killed thousands of dogs and cats. The melamine let the ingredient pass chemical inspections for protein content, the Associated Press reported."

When will America wise up about the shoddy Chinese made products.

The Chinese are not exactly the early day Japanese.

"Mr. Chen said that illnesses associated with contaminated heparin had occurred only in the United States, which he said suggested that the problem arose in this country.

A convenient "suggestion"..

It could also be explained as the United States being the only county sophisticated enough to recognize and identify the threat.

It could also be explained as ONLY the lots sent to the United States were "contaminated"...

Without much of a stretch, one could be led to believe it was INTENTIONAL.......can you say "terrorism"?

More likely - it was a Capitalist GREED that drove the Chinese supplier.

Need we be reminded that EVERY case of Chinese product contamination or VIOLATION OF SPECIFICATIONS was ALWAYS proved to be an INTENTIONAL ACT BY A CHINESE SUPPLIER wishing to "appear to meet specifications the CHEAP way"

We will never learn that Communists are not to be trusted in any way, shape or form.

Thanks very much for posting. I’ve been following this story with interest. My wife was given heparin several months ago when this story was breaking.
