The coronavirus pandemic has exposed a significant weakness in our supply chain. The United States had not produced penicillin since 2006. Up to 93 percent of our antibiotics come from China. 50% of all the face masks produced in the world come from China. Apple could not produce IPhones because the only factory making the screens was located at the epi center of the virus in China and was shut down. Most electronic first tier vendors are located in China. The list goes on. Side note – in 1941, the largest trade partner to the US was Japan.
