I’ve seen in news feeds over the past couple of weeks, that many manufacturing plants have been suspended around the country. They’re planning to get those running again, of course, as soon as possible. If you need anything made in China, it might be best to order before prices increase much. Some kinds of products are all made there regardless of brand name.

Well since 80 percent of our antibiotics are made there, I hope we have a stockpile here that is huge!

They have a shelf life of 10 years, I was told.

I hope we are smart enough (there’s a big if) to have bought huge amounts just in case...something like this happens

Don’t forget Chinese content, even circuit devices as simple as a resistor can shut down a production line. If there’s anything good that’s going to come out of this, it will be surprised and SHOCKED this country will be when our dependency on China is finally realized.
