Drug shortage swells to national emergency, forcing doctors to find new ways to treat patients
The FDA warned about a shortage of Adderall in early October
By Daniella Genovese
New York Post columnist Karol Markowicz joined 'Kennedy' to discuss her recent op-ed about an increase in prescription drugs given to children during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The nationwide shortage of basic antibiotics and critical medications that treat chronic conditions and bacterial infections has become the latest issue to hit the medical world. Consequently, it is forcing many doctors to rely on alternative medicines to treat patients.
"What was once an unthinkable situation—a shortage of basic antibiotics such as amoxicillin and Augmentin to treat ear and skin infections or even medications such as Albuterol to treat asthma—is now a harsh reality," New York City-based emergency room physician Dr. Robert Glatter told FOX Business.
Even the "shortage of basic medications such as children’s Tylenol—integral to treating fever and mild to moderate pain—is impacting our ability to provide care for our patients," Glatter said.
Currently, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has a list of more than 180 current or resolved drug shortages.
He said there have been shortages of antivirals such as Tamiflu, which is used to treat high-risk patients with influenza, as well as diabetic medications such as Ozempic due to the "inappropriate and off-label use" of the medication for weight loss and cosmetic purposes.
Glatter predicted that the drug shortage problem rippling throughout the U.S. could last for at least another year, if not longer.

Gastroenterologist and obesity medicine specialist Dr. Christopher McGowan said he is facing shortages of critical drugs used during surgery.
"IV fluid is an ongoing issue where we sometimes have a supply for one week or two weeks and that's it," McGowan said. "We're always nervous that we could run out of fluid, which is such a critical thing."
There have also been intermittent shortages of key anesthesia medications that are used for most procedures and surgeries, and critical pain medications such as fentanyl, he added.
As a result, McGowan said doctors "are being forced to use alternatives that may not be first line or the optimal treatment for the condition or scenario, or in the best interest of the patient."
Major drugstore chains have also been feeling the effects, especially as flu season ramps up.

Rite Aid told FOX Business that the company has been facing some "constraints" with certain amoxicillin products due to an industry-wide shortage. Although it is not experiencing shortages of Tamiflu at this time, the company is facing a high demand for over-the-counter cold and flu medication "due to high illness incidence."
Walgreens also told FOX Business that the company has seen an increased demand for over-the-counter medications.
Earlier this month, the FDA issued a notice warning that there is a shortage of Adderall, which is used to treat attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and narcolepsy.
The ongoing issue has drawn the ire of Republican lawmakers.
Several lawmakers on the GOP Doctors Caucus spoke out about the amoxicillin shortage with Rep. Brad Wenstrup, one of the co-chairmen of the GOP Doctors Caucus, telling Fox News Digital that no "patient or American family should have to worry about finding a necessary and simple antibiotic like amoxicillin."
SHORTAGE OF KEY DRUGS AMID FLU, RSV SURGE LEAVES DOCTORS WORRIED ABOUT ACCESS
According to federal health officials, intermittent or reduced availability of certain products can occur for many reasons, including manufacturing and quality problems, delays and discontinuations.
However, Glatter said that the problem is in part because the U.S. is currently facing challenges in obtaining raw materials. For instance, source materials for manufacturing the active pharmaceutical ingredients in the majority of drugs come from China, which is dealing with limited production and output of raw materials involved in pharmaceutical manufacturing due to rigid lockdown measures, Glatter said.
The U.S. is also dependent on India for a significant number of generic medications, but India also relies on China for the raw materials used to produce active pharmaceutical ingredients, he added.

"Herein lies the problem: We don’t have control of the precious drugs that ultimately are integral to patient care in the U.S.," Glatter said.
McGowan agreed the issue of sourcing materials can be playing into this, but said there are multiple areas in the supply chain that can be impacted.
In the case of the Wegovy shortage, the contract manufacturer in charge of filling the syringes, had to halt production due to a manufacturing issue, which disrupted the entire supply chain. That, coupled with the initial overwhelming demand, led to a nationwide shortage, according to McGowan.
Still, companies and federal health officials are doing what they can to make sure patients still get the medications they need. The FDA told FOX Business that the agency "recognizes the potential impact that reduced availability of certain products may have on health care providers and patients."
The federal agency does not manufacture drugs nor can it "require a pharmaceutical company to make a drug, make more of a drug, or change the distribution of a drug" the FDA said. However, "the public should rest assured the FDA is working closely with numerous manufacturers and others in the supply chain to understand, mitigate and prevent or reduce the impact of intermittent or reduced availability of certain products."
The FDA also said that manufacturers should expect the availability of drugs to continue to increase in the near future.
Meanwhile, Rite Aid said it is currently working with suppliers to meet demand and "mitigate shortages where possible." The company also said its pharmacists can work with a customer’s physician to recommend alternative antibiotics or medications.
The company also recommended that customers talk to pharmacists about over-the-counter options if they do not see their preferred cold or flu treatment products on the shelf.
Walgreens said that it is prepared to continue meeting the needs of its customers and that it is working with a "diverse set of suppliers and distributors to ensure our patients have the products they need most."

Who’s Attacking Our Power Grid?
Duke Energy personnel work to restore power at a second crippled electrical substation after the Moore County Sheriff said that vandalism caused a mass power outage in Carthage, N.C., December 4, 2022. By Jim Geraghty
December 27, 2022 10:15 AM
On the menu today: I hope you had a wonderful Christmas. I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but it appears someone is attacking the electrical power grid of the Seattle area, which comes after a series of similar incidents elsewhere in the Pacific Northwest as well as in Florida. And the FBI never caught the guy who attacked the electrical grid down in North Carolina earlier this month. Shooting up a power substation is apparently the latest fad.
Picture it: It’s Christmas, you’re about to prepare a big meal for the whole family, and the power goes out — all the lights, the refrigerator, your computer and cellphone charger, the works. That happened this year for a lot of families in the Seattle area, but it wasn’t wind, snow, or bad weather; someone shot up their local power substation.

The Rise and Fall of a Colossal Fraud
Sam Bankman-Field of FTX, who seems to have stolen and otherwise misdirected billions from his own crypto scam, was invited to speak at a New York Times event called DealBook on Nov. 30. A seat in the audience cost $2,499. He had been booked for the gig long before because he was a darling of the left, having thrown around many millions to back Democrats in the midterms.
He was also loved for running the second-largest crypto exchange in the world while babbling left-wing prattle about effective altruism and pandemic planning. He advertised himself as the world’s most generous billionaire at a mere 30 years old! With his disheveled look and halting speech patterns, he struck many as a genius. One would have to let go of all normal intuition to believe that, but here is where we are today.
Seems like he may be laying out his defense
Globalist Democrat Jared Kushner Makes Ludicrous Claim About When He Was “Out” on Trump

Sometimes he was a demonic voice in the ear of the President. Other times he wielded perceived power to take direct actions against the Trump agenda. All the while he pretended to be on the side of his father-in-law and the nation while quietly opposing both.

More Money for War, CV19 Vax Mass Awakening, Autos & Economy Plunge
By Greg Hunter’s USAWatchdog.com (WNW 561 12.23.22)
The money for more war in Ukraine keeps flowing out of the U.S. Congress. The Senate passed a monster pork spending package called the Omnibus bill. It was nearly $1.7 trillion. In that pork bucket was another $45 billion for the money laundering scheme that is Ukraine. They say they need it to fight the invading Russians, but not a dime for the invaders on the Southern U.S. border. Meanwhile, Putin is upgrading his nuclear arsenal. Does anybody in Congress see a problem coming here? Idiots and criminals are in charge of the federal government.
Every week there are dozens of people who “die suddenly.” There are blogs that track this phenomenon all around the world. Of course, it’s people dying from the CV19 bioweapon, but you will never hear this from the Lying Legacy Media (LLM). The LLM told everyone to take the injection and that it was “safe and effective.” That was a lie, and everyone involved in this clear genocide is trying to cover it up including the CDC. No matter how hard they all try, what is coming is a mass awakening to the deadly and debilitating scam they passed off as a vaccine. Just ask vax proponent Academy Award winning actor Tim Robbins if he still believes in the clot shots—spoiler alert– he does not. What does that say about the rest of Hollywood? Do you think he has a few friends that think the same way he does?
The economy is plunging. The economic signals are the same as they were before the Great Recession in 2008 and 2009. Meanwhile, the Fed is on a course to continue to raise rates. There is no so-called Fed pivot. There is just a plunge to the downside, and the used car market is reflecting this trend with a massive new wave of car repossessions.

No Cash Bail, permitted to roam Northern California
FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried to be released on a theoretical $250 million bail, will live with his parents, read the small print

FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried will be released on $250 million bond while awaiting trial for fraud and other criminal charges, a New York federal judge ruled Thursday.
The terms of his personal recognizance bond were agreed to by prosecutors and Bankman-Fried’s lawyers. The 30-year-old will face his next hearing in New York City on Jan. 3. Bankman-Fried was expected to be released from federal custody on Thursday, a prosecutor said.
A recognizance bond is a written commitment from the accused to appear in court when ordered. In return, Bankman-Fried’s camp would not be required to meet the full collateral requirements on the bail.
The bond was secured by equity in his family home, and by the signatures of his parents and two other individuals with “considerable” assets.
In addition to the $250 million package, which prosecutors called “the largest-ever pretrial bond,” the former crypto billionaire would also be required to wear an electronic monitoring bracelet, submit to mental health counseling and restrict himself to the Northern District of California.
Judge Gabriel Gorenstein said Bankman-Fried would require “strict” supervision following his release to his parents’ home in California.
His parents, both Stanford Law professors, were present in the courtroom. Bankman-Fried was flanked by two U.S. marshals, dressed in a suit and tie.
He did not speak except when answering the judge.
The former FTX CEO would also be barred from opening any new lines of credit of more than $1,000 while awaiting trial over what federal regulators have called a “brazen” fraud at his bankrupt crypto empire.
Bankman-Fried was the heart of “a fraud of epic proportions,” Assistant U.S. Attorney Nicolas Roos told the court. But he voluntarily returned to the United States, has no history of flight and has significantly reduced financial assets, Roos said.
Bankman-Fried had previously claimed that he was down to a mere $100,000, a steep fall from grace for a man who was once at the head of a $32 billion crypto empire.
Bankman-Fried stands accused of perpetrating a multibillion-dollar fraud on his investors, using customer funds to purchase properties, fund political donations and backstop trades at his hedge fund Alameda Research.
Federal regulators allege over $8 billion in customer funds is missing. FTX filed for bankruptcy protection in Delaware on Nov. 11. Bankman-Fried’s successor, CEO John Ray, said he’d never seen such a “complete failure of corporate control.”
Two of his top lieutenants, Caroline Ellison and Gary Wang, pleaded guilty to related fraud charges and are cooperating with law enforcement. Wang’s and Ellison’s plea deals were revealed Wednesday.
Bankman-Fried was indicted by the U.S. District Court in Manhattan on eight counts including securities fraud and money laundering, and was rendered from the Bahamas to New York om Wednesday evening.
Bankman-Fried’s bail dwarfs other federal white-collar bonds. Bernie Madoff posted a $10 million bond while awaiting trial on his multibillion-dollar Ponzi scheme. Jeff Skilling, former Enron CEO, posted a $5 million bond, while Elizabeth Holmes, Theranos founder, posted a scant $500,000.
I bet he walks without talking.

An investigation into a brutal and unjustified arrest during George Floyd protests in Chicago two years ago has raised new questions about the Chicago Police Department’s response to the days of unrest and implicated a commander and two officers in the filing of a false report.
The officer who made the arrest, James Hunt, is accused of beating a woman who drove toward another officer on the night of May 30, 2020, in the first block of West Kinzie Street.

America’s Growing Political Impotence
First-world counties have governments that work. Perhaps imperfectly, and perhaps not in the most economically efficient way, but they successfully fulfill their responsibilities. But what happens when government not only fails to perform as expected, but its execution is inept to the point of being an embarrassment? To invoke an old image, the trains not only fail to run on time, but few move at all and when they do operate, they are accident prone and chronically late while often arriving at the wrong stations.
More is involved than public inconvenience or squandering funds. At some point public confidence is so weakened that the government itself loses legitimacy. And, as legitimacy declines, voters may well consider once unthinkable alternatives. Recall that “making the trains run on time” was the slogan that helped bring Benito Mussolini to power in 1922. This is the politics of exasperation, the belief that something must be done, and that perhaps a new political order is needed. This Is not a good situation for democracy.

The decision comes on the heels of Pope Francis facing criticism for putting an abortion advocate on the Pontifical Academy for Life, claiming that giving an abortion support a Catholic Church platform helps “dialog.”

In farewell speech, Rep. Adam Kinzinger attempts to rewrite history and warns GOP ‘has embraced lies and deceit’
“Our democracy is not functioning,” Adam Kinzinger, the Chicago-area Republican who has stood against the MAGA wing, warns colleagues.
By Lynn Sweet
In his farewell to Congress, Rep. Adam Kinzinger said both Republicans and Democrats lack “spines to stand up and put country over party.”
WASHINGTON — Ringing alarm bells in his last speech on the House floor, Rep. Adam Kinzinger, R-Ill., who early on warned about the corrosive effects of conspiracy theories that started during the Trump presidency and led to the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol, said Thursday he feared U.S. democracy “will fall into the ash heap of history.”
“Our democracy,” said Kinzinger, “is not functioning.”
Kinzinger, who sacrificed his political career — at least for now — for speaking out against lies and election denial, said in his farewell address that he had wanted to end his time in Congress with the country in better shape than when he started, but “I cannot in good conscience say that I have done that.”
Instead of members using “our platform to advance the well-being of our nation and her people, we’ve turned this institution into an echo chamber of lies.”
