ANALYSIS/OPINION:
If anything good can come from the coronavirus pandemic, it is the revelation of America’s overreliance on China, especially when it comes to drugs.

It could not happen all at once, any more than the outsourcing occurred overnight, but we could begin the process and this virus that has infected and affected the world gives our leaders an opportunity to start.
