    I’m always amazed that somehow has a first world nation we have this shit. When my kids had COVID there was nothing for a fever and there were guides on how to split pills for kids.

    Just use our purchasing power to import it from some other country and ignore the red tape.

      Your pharmacist didn’t do it for you?

      Importation is the critical problem with formula, we have no domestic production. So if/when other nations don’t produce surplus, we just don’t get any.
