Prepare for supplies to tighten for the cheap, effective therapeutic treatment for early stage Covid-19 infection, hydroxychloroquine (HCQ). Just as the medical establishment in the US is relaxing its absurd and lethal suppression of the cheap, generic drug, following President Trump’s endorsement of it early in the pandemic, HCQ’s continued availability may suffer. The world’s second largest pharmaceutical facility producing the precursors for HCQ has been destroyed by an explosion and fire.
Taiwan English News reports:
An explosion at a pharmaceutical factory in Taoyuan City left two injured and caused a fire early this afternoon, December 20.
People as far as Tamsui District in New Taipei City reported hearing the massive blast shortly after noon. Immediately after the blast, thick black smoke could be seen pouring out of the SCI Pharmtech factory. (snip)
The cause of the explosion is currently under investigation.
Liberty Times reported that the factory produces hydroxychloroquine APIs [active pharmaceutical ingredients – TL], and is the world’s second largest HCQ raw material supplier.
A subsequent report indicates that one of the injured workers, a Filipino guest worker who suffered third degree burns over 90% of his body, has died. The explosion broke out around noon and set off subsequent explosions in volatile substances nearby.
The Taipei Times reports that company spokesmen state, “… it would take at least six months to rebuild the plant, as most production lines were damaged by the fire….”
Supplies may be tight, as the SCI Pharmtech had already expanded production and sales of HCQ APIs to meet growing demand:
The company reported cumulative revenue of NT$2.61 billion in the first 11 months of this year, up 18.19 percent from NT$2.21 billion in the same period last year, thanks to steady shipments of APIs for hydroxychloroquine
The cause of the fire is under investigation. Given the explosive character of some of the ingredients, there may well be a perfectly innocent explanation for the fire. But a six-month delay in resuming production may delay HCQ supplies to early stage Covid-19 patients, who could otherwise treat their affliction with it, combined with zinc and an antibiotic like azithromycin.
I’ve been to Taoyuan and visited industrial facilities there. It is very close to Taipei Taoyuan International Airport, the major international airport serving Taipei and Taiwan, and also to Hsinchu Science Park, a high-tech mecca, housing over 400 companies. This area is highly sophisticated and prosperous, and has a bullet train station connecting it to central Taipei in about half an hour’s travel time. It is not at all some third world backwater; quite the contrary.
Gee… what a “surprise”!!! ???
Take a drug & a nanotech ‘vaccine’ to cure a hoax virus…
I think this is a minor problem, but I am not surprised. This is a 70yr old Generic drug so I’ve no doubt that other facilities will step in to meet the shortfall.
CIA or Mossad, or both. The signal is the “second wave” releasing and spreading SARS-Cov-3, saying that it is SARS-Cov-2 (Covid-19) which “mutated”. The question is whether the vaccinations they have trotted out now are meant to protect those who take it from the second wave as well as the first. If so they will put to death the growing opposition exposing them and leave the anti-vaxers worried and vulnerable to a more virulent and lethal version of Covid-19.
Anyone thinking that this is too far fetched have not been paying attention to what has been going on this year, and fail to understand that these are the very options the freaks coordinating the entire pandemic do consider in determining how to increase the scare to continue the control measures for the Agendas, which will take a number of years and our “cooperation” to implement.
If they did not want the vaccines to work too quickly needing more time, then they would say the first vaccination only protects from the “first wave” but that they need now to use the massive research to develop a second vaccination. In addition to the SARS-Cov 3 virus the records show that the University of North Carolina also has isolated SARS-Cove 4 to keep things going.
What we need are brave whistleblowers leaking or coming forward to spill the beans about everything. We are foolish to do or take anything being denied the truth to properly assess the risks. Yet, that is what they want us to do.
The perfect storm for the controllers would be to create a dilemma whereby people are unable to trust getting any of the various vaccinations, none of which they will know the real side effects, but at the same time they are fearful if they don’t get that which government is pushing, they will be more exposed to the more virulent form of the present virus. Such would cause more social paralysis, panic, mistrust, and fear. However, the more they play around with a second wave the more risky and uncertain things will become for them. Something will break.
It’s a Hanukkah miracle! Another stroke of “luck” for the Jew World Order and their toxic wares.
