Counterfeit medicines from China

Long summary of what was causing people to die from Heparin allergies at US hospitals and dialysis units posted on BNN...

This hits home because the Philippines is trying to pass a "generic" drug bill...usually generics in the US work, but when Lolo had an infected foot, it didn't get better after four days on the antibiotic, until Dr. Angie warned me to change to a brand name drug...and the infection immediately improved, and was cured in five days.
