Pharmaceuticals

Poor Timing

September 24, 2007 | A version of this story appeared in Volume 85, Issue 39

AstraZeneca transferring production to China is a very poor move (C&EN, July 30, page 40). At a time when products coming from China are highly suspect for major quality defects, and when critical products such as pharmaceuticals are not being labeled with country of origin, most of us will be reluctant to trust AstraZeneca's pharmaceuticals. My family and I will avail ourselves of other companies' products whenever possible.
