Millions of fake pills from China, some with no active ingredients and others with the wrong contents, have been uncovered and confiscated by customs officers in France.

“Drug research in China has fallen under a cloud since 2006 because 13 of the top 20 global drug makers have set up research and development centers in China. Yes, it’s cheaper to do research there, but, as one auditor said, ‘with cheaper research comes greater risk,’” she wrote.
... There also are whole factories in China with up to 15,000 people employed for the purpose of counterfeiting products.

Good thing my meds come from India.......................
Communism in China has turned Chinese society into an amoral, short-term money-grubbing culture.
That’s what happens when “dialectic materialists” control everything and destroy civil society because it can not be controlled politically.
Average Chinese know the amount of fakery and corruption in their society (we only hear 1% here in the West), but to change it would mean changing society - and that would be dangerous for the Party.
let me guess
Barack H was made in one of those factories producing fake products
This new guy wants to be Mao.. some in the Party don't like it so he (Xi) is dealing with them. A "high-profile anti-graft" campaign to get 'em -- that if legit would not just target Xi's opponents but every Party member guilty of corruption including hemself.. IOW 100% of them.
PLA generals take rare step of swearing loyalty to President Xi Jinping
"Eighteen senior generals of the People's Liberation Army (PLA) swore allegiance to their commander-in-chief, President Xi Jinping - a rare move that analysts say reflects Xi's strong hold on the military.
"But the analysts speculated that it also reflected the precarious atmosphere within the ranks as the party launches a high-profile anti-graft campaign in the PLA."
Best thing to happen would be to have to put down a revolution of the 800 million or so citizens left out of Red China's "prosperity" joined by those tens of millions losing everything when the bubble that is Red China bursts.
And no TARP for American corporations losing their asses over there!
And more and more of the vitamin and mineral supplements are made in China. There is no way to know whether some prescription drugs or supplments are made in China, and as usual, those selling these products in the US will fight country-of-origin labeling laws.
Pet food, drywall, drugs. Why do we trade with them again?
Vaccines and/or their components are also made in China.
The FDA has stated it’s not possible, nor is it their job, to inspect such imports.
“Why do we trade with them again?”
Because it makes the globalists rich and weakens us as a nation.
Drugs, sterile instruments, normal saline, power stretchers - you name it, it probably isn’t made here. My guess is foreign-made medical supplies account for at least 80% of what we use, and our production capacity is gone.
If China wants to screw us, all they have to do is close the pipeline.
Or put slow, slow acting poisons in the drugs.
Yep, from 2007, China corners vitamin C market, supplies 90% of that sold in US:
An update of that information would look even worse.
This is why it’s so dangerous to by pharmaceuticals on internet sites.
I get mine from a guy on the corner in his Escalade..................
Well as long as you're using a pharmacist in the U.S. you shouldn't have anything to worry about.
Well it is in front of an ABC Liquor Store....................
I’ve done that as well.......................
However, considering the state of current programming, perhaps there is a link between ABC and pharmaceuticals.
