NEW RECALL - Blood pressure medication recalled due to Rocket Fuel additive contamination + Made in China 2025 Plan & the need for Trump Tariffs

“The American and European public have to realize China doesn’t have consumer protection laws like we do,” Gibson said. “If consumers here want to file a lawsuit against a Chinese company, they are out of luck.”

The United States has locked into a strategic competition with the Chinese regime, which is adopting increasingly aggressive foreign policies and military expansions.

Medicine is listed among the top 10 items in the “Made in China 2025” plan, an aggressive industrial strategy the Chinese regime rolled out in 2015 that outlined China’s industrial policy for catching up and surpassing rivals like the United States, Japan, and Germany across a wide array of technological competitions.

It's warfare pure and simple.

Seriously folks, this is a talking point and specific argument for Trump's tariffs on China. When people want to complain about aluminum tariffs (seems to be their only argument), bring up the fact that 70% of the United States prescriptions come from China and are contaminated.

Consider the “Made in China 2025” initiative: It targets the pharmaceutical industry, is a "real existential threat to U.S. technological leadership," according to The Council on Foreign Relations.

Still, recent events don’t add up to a growing sense of security. And they point to the political calculus at play as the general media now inextricably mix politics with our world of drug manufacturing. Here’s just one example:

Cancer-causing Communists?

“The Chinese communist regime’s health regulator announced the recall of made-in-China pharmaceutical valsartan, which is being subject to a recall in the United States and Europe. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration said on July 13 that 29 types of single and 51 types of combination valsartan medicines are being recalled. The European Medicines Agency (EMA) announced a recall of the drug on July 5 when it was informed by China’s Zhejiang Huahai Pharmaceutical—a major global manufacturer of generic valsartan—that the drug had been contaminated by a substance called N-Nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA), which has been linked to cancer.”
-- as reported by NTD, a New York-based global news and entertainment media (July 30, 2018)

“It’s a major national security risk for us in two ways," said Mike Osterholm, director of the Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy at the University of Minnesota and an expert on biosecurity. "We are very concerned about the quality of these drugs.”

And the Trump administration has been engaged in months of verbal and bureaucratic battles with China over tariffs.

"Now we are caught up in an economic war in the sense of tariffs,” Osterholm added in an interview. "If we were ever in an international incident with China, they would literally have their hands around our necks in terms of critical drugs. They wouldn’t even have to fire a shot."

Gibson estimates in her book that 80 percent of the ingredients in U.S.-branded pharmaceuticals and over-the-counter drugs start out in either China or India.

“Food has been used as a weapon of war. Our medicines can be used like that, too,” she said.

Seriously, when some dumbass wants to argue about Trump's tariffs, tell them to enjoy their contaminated pharmaceuticals, vaccines, OTC meds, vitamins, and natural supplements from China.

IMO, this is the best argument for the Tariffs.

edited to add spy chips is a pretty good argument as well.

Holy shit. That stuff is a mutagen and a carcinogen. It's found in tobacco smoke!

so many people on blood pressure meds.

my mom was taking some for decades then all of a sudden something changed and she was in the hospital for weeks until they got it figured back out.

\they started just giving her mixes and matches of different ones until they found one that worked, and i am thankful they did, but fuck that just doesn't seem like a very good way to do it.

who the hell knows whats' in all those meds and what it's doing to your body.

i hope like hell i'll never have to be on meds, but odds are we all will as we grow older unless we just naturally let whatever our ailments are kill us off.

Well the china for a decade plan has been dirt cheap barrels of hallucinogenic amphetamine and fentanyl. Right now.

One of the biggest piles of it sitting a half hour or so away just waiting to be carried in or one of ours brave the trip and load up.
There has never been anything like it in this country. The temptation is, one trip for basic giveaway and they can pay bills for weeks.
It is undoubtably saturation, just like the coke and heroin is

GLPers, I guarantee that if you conduct a search for a medication you take, you will find a recall on it at some point in time when China started their China 2025 Plan.

Back in 2015, there was a recall on Aleve which is something that I take when needed. It was recalled that year due to illegal steroids found in a batch. I actually had a bottle of this when I went on a trip to Florida and bought a bottle.

And.......it was manufactured in China.

Rocket Fuel! Damn!

Horee Sheet!

Thanks for the pin!

Oh geez!
Horrid!

Marking to check my moms medications.

Thanks for the information O.P.

China will just recall it and repackage it and sell it somewhere else...

Much like the Bayer corporation did with it's multi-million dollar batch of AIDS infected anti-coagulents.

Well, that could skyrocket your blood pressure.





.

This is phucked-up.. how does 'blood-pressure' medication and a rocket fuel stabilizer even end up in the same room.?

I don't think it's enough for Trump to simply 'blame' china and slap tariffs on imports.. the FDA has a much larger underlying roll to play here, just sayin.






Strange daze indeed..

Melamine contamination in Chinese food products:

The FDA even says at the end of their report, that the melamine contamination in certain food products was deemed DELIBERATE CONTAMINATION:

[link to www.accessdata.fda.gov (secure)]

mel·a·mine
/ˈmeləˌmēn/
noun
noun: melamine; noun: melamine resin; plural noun: melamine resins

1.
Chemistry
a white crystalline compound made by heating cyanamide and used in making plastics.
2.
a plastic used chiefly for laminated coatings, made by copolymerizing this compound with formaldehyde.



It's strategic warfare without placing 1 boot on the ground.

Yeah the fentanyl and other chemicals China is making available in bulk is incredible! This stuff can kill with less than 1 mg. it is measured in micro grams!

Criminals are making these fake, cheap, highly addictive and dangerous pain pills and selling them as something else or selling it as heroin.

Many are dying. This is the only opiate epidemic happening.

Prescribed prescription 's are not the problem.

I think these are being used against our population for chemical weaponry actually.

Very surprised at how many "holistic" products were on that list

yep. Supplements such as vitamins, minerals, herbals, etc...most are manufactured in China with OTC meds and prescriptions.

We are being poisoned. Fish oil from China is highly contaminated with pesticides and plastics:

Bring the tariffs on! We NEED to back away from China the shithole country and their shithole contaminated products.

Two pillars of Trump administration policy – combating the soaring prices for prescription drugs and equalizing the U.S. trade imbalance with China – appear to be on a collision course, drug and foreign policy experts say.

"It's a huge dramatic shift and nobody knows about it," Gibson says. "And they're just ramping up. It's all part of a plan that China laid out in its 2025 initiative to become the pharmacy to the world."

It's going to be a bumpy ride, but we have to do it.

damn hydrazine

American businesses are worried about China 2025, not the trade deficit: Carlos Gutierrez:

What do you think nitro pills are?

just a tiny bit of nitroglycerin. it's just a
chemical that seems to work.

i'm still dumbstruck at how somebody would have
ever tried it to relieve heart pain.

Exactly! This has to be deliberate.

Does the tariff issue have anything to do with this? Payback?

One of Trump's big things not too long ago was lowering prescription drug costs. I can't help but wonder if this is connected somehow.

Wow. This is terrible. I have an entire bottle of high bp meds in my drawer that I haven't taken 1 pill yet. Ive started having hyper tension these past few months, prob due to stress. For some reason I just knew I shouldn't take it. Its not this one but I have absolutely NO trust in doctors OR medicine any longer. Now Im definitely throwing them away. Glad for confirmation. Rather pray for protection anyway.

praying won't fix it, but you can.

exercise and change your diet.

YOU can fix it.
