That is true. Bulk drugs are made in a chemical plant and pills from them often in a separate location, even country.all that took was a total international effort. this is putting pressure on companies to spend the next decade disrupting and moving existing manufacturing to places that don't yet exist to do something less profitable. maybe they can switch some existing production over to generics, but that comes with opportunity cost too
plus, pharma factories are large, climate controlled buildings that need a lot of electricty. if that sounds familiar, it's because they'll be competing with trillions of dollars in data center construction to get their facilities built.
