Europe’s last manufacturer of ingredients for some vital antibiotics is closing its biggest domestic factory and shifting some production to China
Lossmaking Xellia Pharmaceuticals said it could only survive against Chinese competition by moving many of its products to its plant there.
About 80 per of APIs used in the EU already come from China.
Perhaps nationalize the unprofitable facility in order to keep the capability?
Creating more dependencies on crucial stuff isn’t the right way to go…
That’s what happens when you open the market to a country with no labour standards and rights.
It’s easier to go there, be taxed there and pay shit salaries and keep the workforce working 12h a day with barely any effective training or standards in a place made of ‘chinesium’ than to be an honest employer and be taxed fairly and pay fair wages even if that means you don’t get 20 millions a year for yourself…
We’ve stopped reminding the ‘ruling’ class that we’re many and when angry we used to drag them outside and hang them from trees
Is the elite really that stupid? How can they stay in power if they don’t think ahead? Where are the competent citizens who can take over?
Great that’s everything we need now 🙄
That’s fine, since the chances of a doctor prescribing antibiotics in Europe are the same as winning the lottery.
There have been ZERO cases in which I have needed it and not gotten it.
You know that it is supposed to be used for bacterial infections and not viruses right?
Good for you.
Come on man. Share with us, enlighten us. We might be ignorant of something, and you could have valuable insights for us.
This might sound sarcastic, but I promise it is not.
