It is not funny at all. It is sad how much we and the world depend on them. The country who unleased this virus on the world, and literally has active concentration camps, gets to also profit by selling our government tests. Not to mention the millions of other products made there. We should have started shifting manufacturing out of China to places like in South America long ago.
I’m wondering if the Covid vaccine was the only vaccine he lacked, or if there were others as well? I understand you need to be fully vaxx’d against many diseases to get a transplant like this.
That's a pipe dream. Perhaps the work environment under the gun, staff live on premises and to work and produce for worldwide and USA companies would not happen in a grand scale in South America . Example, Apple has contracts with a company in Schzen China that produces 500K iPhones per day. That would be a dream in South America. China produces approx 75% of our meds ( pain killers, antibiotics, etc ) , we are dependent on them.
It’s not a pipe dream. It’s called difficult work that will take time to achieve. Need to start somewhere, unless we want to have our manufacturing depend almost solely on a country involved in in-country genocide.
So the approx 500K barrels per year of crude oil we get from Saudi Arabia who we have good relations but they have just a bit of human rights issues? Our country has business relations with countries with their own issues, not just China.
Another country where it’s not necessary for us to be dependent on. But we are talking about China here given the Covid tests were brought up
Sure, but Vietnam and India who manufactures similar items don't have the greatest working conditions either.
Not the point..... it was a joke. Then again I didn't buy an American product. I expect also Bangladesh or Korea or Vietnam when I buy brands like Samsung. Much like my Mini, I know darn well where that's from.
Automation is starting to make some production in America competitive again, my previous car was a Nissan Altima that was made in Tennessee, my current Mazda is made in Japan but they are in talks to build (or perhaps already building) a plant in Alabama for the next CX5.
Yeah my Hondas for many years were often made up the road from where I live (okay kind of far, but people do commute to the Honda plant from my neighborhood). I think my spouse's was US made too. I just happen to like Samsung for mobile devices over others. If I went to US Motorola I'd be getting a Chinese phone. At least Samsung you expect it. I would love some manufacturing to come back to states side. Some countries are finding China isn't the best to do and have pulled out. Who knows if that can happen. But that's nothing to do with covid. Just life in general.
going by this, my wife labeled me as a super spreaderReminiscent of the times when we were supposed to worry about ‘farts’ passing covid.
Lifting the lid on coronavirus flatulence
The highly infectious virus is spread via aerosols (droplets of saliva or nasal discharge spread by coughing or sneezing by the infected person with the mouth uncovered). New speculation reveals that it could spread via fecal matter and even via farts or flatulence. Researchers believe that...www.news-medical.net
A combination of parts made all over the world whose final assembly is either England, Germany, or the Netherlands.
Yes, but the jobs being created aren't enough to offset the ones the US lost.
my condolences
That plant is already under construction, but what hasn't been announced is if the US plant will just be final assembly of imported components, or full assembly.
Looks more like Russia, and yes we are.
Oh, we gonna be both, China is holding Taiwan up like Ukraine so if Russia does invade then they might take a run at the R.O.C
China has a greater variety and range of electric vehicles than any other country, so it makes sense.
