    I wonder what China thinks about filthy drug factories in India turning out ineffective pharmaceuticals? Will they apply regulatory pressure, or just be glad the drugs are cheap?

      Do you think China cares about the filthyness? They literally have gutter oil for cooking. I would not dare visit both anytime soon.

        Since 2011, the Chinese government has significantly cracked down on the reuse of gutter oil for human consumption,[3] with the Chinese government also implementing clearer regulations for dealing with waste oil.[4] Selling gutter oil in China can result in lengthy prison sentences or the death sentence with reprieve. For example, in 2014, businessman Zhu Chuanfeng was sentenced to the latter for selling gutter oil.[5] That same year, a major gutter oil scandal was uncovered in Taiwan.[6] In 2015, Yeh Wen-hsiang, who was the chairman of a Taiwanese food company, was sentenced to 22 years imprisonment and fined the equivalent of $1.6 million[ambiguous] for selling 243 tonnes of gutter oil.[7][8]

        Interesting. Meanwhile, wonder how the US is doing?

        Hmmm. Glad I’m in Finland.

        yea i prefer my drugs cleaned with government approved forever chemicals that we promise are non-carcinogenic! ™

        like don’t me wrong I’m not anti drug or anti vax or whatever but don’t pretend we’ve not had plenty of our own problems with production much less other fraud issues

        opioid crisis comes to mind

          Are you referring to a specific incident that you can provide a reference to? Or at least some search terms?
