You literally cannot make this up.

As Americans began receiving free at-home COVID-19 tests kits distributed by the Biden administration this week, many Americans began noticing something odd about the tests: They are made in China.

According to Reuters, iHealth Labs Inc. is a subsidiary of Andon Health Co Ltd, a Chinese medical supplies company.

The Defense Department announced on Jan. 14 that the U.S government had awarded iHealth Labs Inc. a contract worth $1.275 billion to produce millions of at-home rapid COVID-19 antigen tests. The contract will supply testing kits that serve up to 250 million people, Reuters noted.

Correction - as pointed out, I was incorrect in my assertion. The administration is buying all available tests from the US. Additional tests are manufactured in China as needed to adequately address shortages. Labels on the packages show the supply was made in China.

Based in California. (Still the USA regardless of whether you believe it is)
 
As hard as it is, Trumpettes gotta find something to be outraged about (in comparison to how sleepy they were between 2015 and 2021).
 
Not surprisingly, you didn't read my linked article in its entirety.
I stand corrected and changed my original response accordingly.

I'm not sure what percentage are made in China, which is something that would add some context here.

See above. I've already admitted that I was incorrect.
 
Lab tests Made in China. Ukraine borders "Inviolable." Inflation, Afghanistan, just one fuck up after another. :rolleyes:

the issue isnt that you made a mistake

the issue is that you ALWAYS take the WRONG side of the issue without the benefit of any facts and often in the face of facts that prove you wrong
 
What is the point of this thread? What's wrong with using test kits made in China?

Every major company in China is an arm of the CCP. They are run by senior CCP officials and/or members of their family. A great many of the products churned out by these companies are done so with virtual slave labor. (No, I don't know if that is the case in this specific instance but wouldn't be surprised if that turned out to be the case.) Doing business with these companies is to directly subsidize China's belligerence on the international stage.

On top of that I can see no wisdom in trusting our medical diagnostics to a nation that unleashed the very reason those diagnostics are required on the world and then subsequently lied about it.

And that's what's wrong with doing business with China in virtually any instance.

Cry more. I don't care what your issue is, dipshit.
