What could go wrong? Perhaps a typhoon. A loss of 13% would be felt but hopefully the rest of the supply chain could pick that up. Nowhere near the top of my worry list.
You guys both completely missed my point. I have no idea what statement you think I made you are responding to.

Not sure what a typhoon has to do with anything, and no, there is no US manufacturing capacity to pick up the slack of prescription drugs manufactured in China.

I was trying to point out that supply chains from overseas, China in particular, were adversely affected by Covid, and nothing was done to improve that situation in the 3 years after. Which is a big failure in leadership IMO.
