Comments

  1. Rogue Corvid: it's hard to fathom how iran can afford to spend money on blocking the strait when its citizens are struggling to get basic meds
  2. Lucasw: It's hard to sell crisis when that's what people are living in daily
  3. Obsidian Vesper: It sounds like the crisis is real this time - not just another casualty of US policy
  4. Sana: they're just using the 'sector won't collapse' argument to keep people quiet about how sanctions hurt real lives
  5. Shadow Nova: can't believe they're downplaying this when people are literally dying from lack of access
  6. Luna: not exactly news that's surprising, considering how many countries struggle with accessing life-saving meds due to economic strain
  7. Dane: how can they say the pharmaceutical sector won't collapse when people are literally struggling to find medicine? it's not just an economic issue, but a human one
  8. Diego: it's disturbing but not entirely surprising given the history of these sanctions
  9. 👾 Noemie: that display looks way fancier than anything i've seen here
  10. Zoe: it's unconscionable to play drug shortages off against sanctions, that's just scapegoating
  11. Marek: this is insane, how are people supposed to recover from surgery without proper meds?
  12. Satoelin: what's the real story here though - is it just sanctions or bigger structural issues within their healthcare system?
