"These multinational pharmaceutical companies have frequently recalled various problematic drugs around the world, hundreds of times in the past two decades. The frequency of drug problems is simply shocking."
"However, they have not recalled any drugs in China once!"
"Every time there is a global recall, China is not involved!"
"I won't say much more about it. Let's talk about the past few years."
“In 2019, Pfizer voluntarily recalled an antihypertensive drug, valsartan, from the global market because the raw material contained impurities that may cause cancer, but this did not include the Chinese market.”
"Ranitidine, a blockbuster gastric drug that has been on the market for nearly 40 years and has sold sales of US$50 billion in 20 years, was also recalled globally because it was found to contain nitrosamine carcinogenic impurities. Among them are Novartis, GSK and many other well-known pharmaceutical companies."
"However, the Chinese market is still calm, without causing any disturbance, and naturally there has been no recall. It has been completely ignored by various pharmaceutical companies."
"In the same year, Merck's daptomycin reagent for injection was voluntarily recalled globally due to customer complaints that it contained glass particles that could threaten patients' lives. However, it was still absent from the Chinese market."
"In 2021, 20 years after its launch, the anti-influenza drug Tamiflu developed by Roche Pharmaceuticals was recalled in Sakura Country, Eagle Country, Europa and other countries due to the death of patients with difficulty breathing. In the recalled countries, China was still absent and even sued the drug. None of the patients have been compensated by the company.”
"As for this year's antihypertensive drug recall, everyone is well aware that it has caused a stir on the Internet, but pharmaceutical companies are still pretending to be dead and refuse to recall the problematic drugs on the Chinese market."
"Among these multinational pharmaceutical companies, Johnson & Johnson is the one that recalls drugs most frequently."
"In 8 years from 2005 to 2013, Johnson & Johnson Group conducted 51 recalls internationally. As the largest financial backer of Johnson & Johnson Group, the domestic market was excluded 48 times."
"These 51 recalls each occurred in Eagle Country, but the number of recalls in China was very few, and the reasons were all the same. Either the OEMs were different from those abroad, or the drug was not sold in China, or it was directly Pretending to be deaf and dumb.”
"Double standards, this is clearly reflected in the recalls of multinational pharmaceutical companies."
"What does the 'recall scandal' incident of multinational pharmaceutical companies illustrate?"
"It shows that although they make a lot of money in China every year, they never take the patients here seriously."
"It is true that our drug supervision may not be as strict as that of foreign countries, but is this a reason for pharmaceutical companies to have double standards?"
"Since they don't treat us as human beings, are you still willing to continue using their drugs?"
"We must boycott their drugs and switch from imported drugs to domestic drugs as much as possible, so that they can taste the bitter pill of double standards and realize the power of the Chinese people."
“Fortunately, our domestically produced drugs have been rapidly rising. Let’s not talk about those centralized generic drugs, let’s talk about original drugs. We also have conscientious national enterprises like Sanqing, which are more effective than imported drugs, but the price is lower than imported drugs. It’s simply a great value for money.”
"I am now a loyal customer of Sanqing, and all the regular medicines at home have been replaced by Sanqing's medicines."
"Support domestic products and support the Three Cleansing Up, starting from me."
"If you don't buy it, I won't buy it. Foreign companies will never dare to double-standard!"
thump!
thump!
Everyone who reads this article can't help but feel angry and excited.
People's blood vessels are burning, their hearts are beating violently, and there is only one thought in their minds.
"Damn it, I called you a double standard!"
****
This article, an attack on all multinational pharmaceutical companies, instantly caused a storm on the entire Internet.
The official channels of all the pharmaceutical companies whose names were mentioned have all been blocked.
Countless netizens lined up, checked in, left a long list of national curses, and then rushed to the next destination.
Half of the top ten hot searches are about the double-standard incident of multinational pharmaceutical companies.
Netizens even took the initiative to sublimate the theme and expand double-standard foreign companies from the pharmaceutical industry to other industries.
Nike, Adidas, DG Goose, 2-star IKEA, Magnum Orion, etc. are all on the blacklist.
Various posts "taking stock of foreign companies that implement double standards in China" continue to appear on the Internet, which have received a lot of praise and likes.
The more people watch, the more they feel sad, the more they watch, the more angry they become, and the more they watch, the more intolerable they become.
These big international brands that are prospering in China do not appreciate domestic consumers. Instead, they treat them as fools and implement various "double standards."
Although Chinese consumers have made many big international brands popular and have even become their biggest financial sponsors, they do not take domestic consumers into consideration at all.
People in China use fruit mobile phones that are more expensive than foreign countries, drink more expensive foreign milk powder, and drive more expensive cars, but when products are recalled, they are always turned a blind eye.
In other words, no matter how much money the Chinese spend, they still cannot get the respect of international big names.
Why do foreign companies always have double standards for China?
Where does the confidence come from for having double standards again and again?
To put it bluntly, consumers are used to it.
The essence of double standards is arrogance and even discrimination against Chinese consumers.
In the past, China's own brand strength was lacking and unable to compete with international big names.
But now, Chinese companies are present in all walks of life, and each of them is no worse than the big multinational brands.
Netizens across the Internet spontaneously launched a "support domestic products" movement.
Many people began to check various items used in their lives, and were pleasantly surprised to find that most of them can indeed be replaced with domestic products without affecting the quality of life at all.
There are Sanqing drugs, whether they are original drugs or generic drugs, they are among the best. Even if the Sanqing drugs are not available, domestic pharmaceutical companies can produce generic drugs.
Mobile phones, drones, projectors, computers, electric vehicles, etc., you can find replacement domestic products in all aspects of clothing, food, housing and transportation.
Other multinational and foreign companies were bewildered by this sudden wave of boycotts.
They had no idea why they were suddenly accused of double standards, and then the flagship store was inundated with scoldings from netizens, and sales plummeted.
Just as the public relations departments of these companies were preparing to dispatch urgently to calm the situation.
Haishi, Sanofi’s headquarters in China.
President Swansea was staring at the computer screen and let out a long sigh of relief.
He looked at the Vice President of the Public Relations Department next to him, a hint of appreciation flashed in his eyes, and he clapped with a smile on his face.
"You're doing a great job of diverting trouble from others."
"There are very few people mentioning Sanofi right now. If we continue like this, I believe that in a week or two, we will be completely forgotten."
"Haha, our pharmaceutical companies are still very transparent. When it comes to attracting hatred, those well-known international brands are much better. As soon as their double-standard incident was exposed, netizens immediately turned around and criticized them."
"Toyota's 'pedal door', IKEA's 'fatal cabinet', and Samsung's 'explosion door', these accidents are much more serious than our antihypertensive drugs."
The more Swansea talked, the more elated he became, with a triumphant expression on his face, as if he was sure of victory.
"Okay, this time we have finally overcome the difficulties successfully. Wait until tomorrow, and we can officially announce the recall of a certain batch of problematic drugs, build a good impression, and completely clear our name."
"As for that lawsuit, no one is paying attention to it. It won't cause any trouble. It will be settled out of court when the time comes."
The vice president of the public relations department did not dare to take credit, so he nodded and said, "Mr. Swansea, all of this is due to your wise decision-making."
Swansea showed a satisfied smile and was about to instruct his subordinates to prepare a recall notice.
Suddenly, there was a bang.
The office door was pushed open suddenly, and the secretary walked in with a panicked look on his face, holding a document in his hand.
"Mr. Swansea, sorry, the Food and Drug Administration has officially sent a letter, requesting an interview with our company. We must explain the recall of the problematic drugs."
"What?"
Swansea couldn't help being shocked, and he hurriedly took the document. When he saw the red seal on it, his face suddenly turned pale.
Looking at the letter again, the wording is strong and the attitude is firm, conveying the message that the problem is serious and must be solved as soon as possible.
Instantly, cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
"Fake, we are preparing to initiate a recall. Why did the Food and Drug Administration respond so quickly this time? They immediately sent a letter to question."
"Shete, this was never like this before. Now we can't take the initiative to recall them. We have to wait for the official notification."
Swansea slumped down in his chair, feeling completely dejected.
How could the originally well-thought-out plan turn into this?
The vice president of the public relations department said cowardly: "Then what should we do?"
"What else can we do? We have an interview tomorrow, so hurry up and prepare the explanation materials."
Swansea said angrily, his head was buzzing and he felt like it was going to explode.
