Surrounded by idiots

According to this New York Times on-line article, the factory that made the bad ingredient that killed people using heparin hadn't even been inspected by the Chinese, much less the FDA. "The plant in Changzhou, west of Shanghai, appears to fall into the type of regulatory void that American and Chinese health officials are trying to close — in which chemical companies export pharmaceutical ingredients without a Chinese drug license." "Karen Riley, a spokeswoman for the United States Food and Drug Administration, said inspectors from that agency would be visiting the Changzhou plant soon. Ms. Riley said she could not be more specific. Earlier in the week she described her agency’s failure to inspect the plant as a 'glitch'.”

Rico says someone has to go down for this 'glitch'...
