shortages are not important as long as select family members benefited

“Not related to corona virus. ..”

“An FDA spokesperson said that the agency
could not disclose which drug it was discussing in the statement.”

I looked up all of mine and they all appear to be made in India.

[null and void]

“Not related to corona virus. ..”

Sez who?

FROM THE EXCERPT:

...due to an issue manufacturing the drug’s active pharmaceutical ingredient at a facility affected by the new coronavirus.

[Drago]

The key is were the ingredients came from. China-—>India??

Fake News - Seasonal Flu kills more people.

[metmom]

Many of them are.

Hopefully, there will be enough made there to offset the loss from China

[RummyChick]

They get ingredients from China.

SOmeone went to the FDA website when I posted a similar article. The most likely candidate was a blood pressure drug. Dont remember name of it.

Fake News - Seasonal Flu kills more people.

We really don't know that yet.

COVID 19 has not been around long enough to make that determination.

[RummyChick]

btw, when I posted the article last week - dont remember day- it did not state it was because of the virus. Just that they got a notice

***An FDA spokesperson said that the agency could not disclose which drug it was discussing in the statement***

Well, isn't that just precious! Transparency... No need to prepare; death may not be all that bad.

[Jane Long]

Maybe they forgot their /s tag.

It’s amazing how many people lack that very basic and elementary understanding of time, geography and math. I suspect trying to explain compound interest or mathematical exponents would be lost on them. Ah,well.

[goodnesswins]

Didn’t read the whole article....oops

[BobL]

I know, but I wanted to say it before the ‘normalcy brigade’ shows up.

[BobL]

“SOmeone went to the FDA website when I posted a similar article. The most likely candidate was a blood pressure drug. Dont remember name of it.”

I wonder how they’ll classify deaths from people who rely on meds to stay alive, but now have their supply cut off. Is it just a run-of-the-mill ‘stroke’, or a stroke due to high blood pressure, due to lack of available meds?

Will be interesting (if we get there).

[a fool in paradise]

But how am I gonna get my scrip for placebo refilled?

[null and void]

Or the whole 2 paragraph 2 sentence excerpt.

[metmom]

I thought it was odd for you to say that, but I also posted that realizing that if you didn’t really mean it, those who are actually claiming that needed to hear it too.
