U.S. Experiencing Shortages of 100+ Drugs Including Narcan And Insulin As Record Amounts of Fentanyl Flows Across Southern Border

Information Liberation – by Chris Menahan

The US is experiencing shortages of over 100 drugs ranging from Narcan to Adderall and insulin while record amounts of fentanyl flows across our southern border thanks to DHS head Alejandro Mayorkas’ refusal to enforce federal immigration laws.

WATCH:

From WKRN, “FDA reports 100+ drug shortages nationwide”:

Recent supply chain disruptions are impacting everything from clothes to food, and even trips to the pharmacy. Popular drugs like Adderall, oxycodone, and insulin are running low nationwide.

In Tennessee, Steve Beasley said he’s having trouble finding iron dextran for his iron infusions. “I’m stuck between a rock and a hard place right now — none of the pharmacies around here can get it where they can compound it in-house.”

The FDA currently lists 112 drug shortages on its website. The reasons for the backlogs all vary.

“Some of the companies have discontinued making [iron dextran] for whatever reason,” Beasley said. “I don’t know, it just says manufacturing delays.”

The life-saving drug Narcan is being impacted too, with Pfizer’s website listing the availability of its injectable naloxone formulation as depleted.

The narcan shortage comes while the US is experiencing record overdose deaths:


From The Washington Examiner, “Record fentanyl seizures at border contributed to soaring overdose deaths in US”:

Fentanyl seizures by federal law enforcement inspecting goods and people attempting to enter the United States from abroad shot up over the past 12 months, more than doubling the record-high level confiscated a year earlier.

The surge in U.S. Customs and Border Protection seizures at the nation’s border is closely connected to the surge of drug overdose deaths occurring deep inside the U.S., which also hit a new high this year as a result of the prevalence of opioids.

“If they’re seizing a lot, it’s because a lot is coming in — because you don’t know the percentage of how much is coming through that they’re actually seizing,” said Dr. Joshua Sharfstein, vice dean for public health practice and community engagement at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health in Baltimore.

VICE News reported last week that heroin is “disappearing from drug markets” across North America and being replaced with far deadlier fentanyl (most of which is trafficked through Mexico).

As National File noted, the heroin shortage reportedly hit in September after the US left Afghanistan.

After retaking power, the Taliban once again cracked down on opiate production and started rounding up drug users and forcing them into hospitals for a 45-day detox, which outlets like Bloomberg and the AP suggested was some sort of grave human rights violation.

In contrast, leftist states like Rhode Island are now opening “safe” drug injection sites and ferrying needles to drug users’ homes.

  1. Why? Adderall, Naloxone and Insulin are not big on the cartel smuggling lists.
    Meth maybe? But not Adderall, or Naloxone. Cartels would flood the market with Naloxone to keep their Fentanyl customers alive.
    On the other hand. The Traitorous Psychopathic Organized Criminal tribe members that want to kill of 90+% of the Population. Especially White people.
    Would find that decreasing the availability of over 100 medications, many that are life saving, would move that agenda along rapidly. It’s the Chinese. It’s the Supply Chain. We’re doing it on purpose…Oops. Weren’t supposed to admit to that. BTW. Everything I comment on on multiple different sites adds spelling errors or totally bizarre word substitutions. Even after triple proof reading.

  2. Were safe now. Dr Barfowitz is on the case.

  3. what’s the difference between a drug cartel and the government ?

    A drug cartel doesn’t force you to take their drug

  4. I don’t pretend to understand all the mechanisms of THE GLOBAL DRUG TRAFFICKING CARTEL as they continuously launch MISSION DESTROY, but beyond the border problem, I’m so sick of everything they’re allowing to happen to our world, our people. Orchestrating shortages, creating desperation for those who need life-saving medicine, or sending in a glut of varietal poisons, all designed to have a destructive impact on functioning human beings. With the pharmaceutical companies working hand-in-hand with the drug kingpins, it’s moving along just the way they want it to, with life getting smeared with more and more addiction, more and more desperation. I can’t wait ’till we stop this evil.

    On a side note… I’m wondering about this “bringing clean needles” thing. Is it to help people stay right where they are and stand still?
