[quote=flu]On a more serious note. If you or someone you care about relies on long term medication, you might want to give them a friendly reminder to have a nice stash of medicine 90-120 days.
The pharma supply chain too, is completely or partially dependent on facilities and ingredients from China and India, and that supply chain has been disrupted by the coronavirus. India just put an export restriction on drug exports, and many of the common medication that people depend on are generics made in India with ingredients manufactured from China.
So get your refills in now. Short term pain of offshoring drug manufacturing overseas. Pharma companies will learn the hard way and eventually some of it probably will come back to North America, which is a good thing.
Fortunately my mothers a smart lady, she was on this several weeks ago when this first started catching fire and ordered a > 90 day supply with OK of doc.
I wounder how many will die (not of disease) but from running out of prescriptions etc…
