Settle down. I didn’t make the arguments you’re yelling at me about.
Come on. I said the exact opposite. Insulin is easily renewable. There is always more where the last batch came from.
I do casually believe that if demand happens to peak in a town, they can’t always magically teleport existing stock the same day, a belief I share with anybody who’s ever had to deal with business inventories, corporate or retail.
Nobody is worried that the world will get amnesia and forget how to make insulin. The warnings are about access and possible temporary short-term supply chain problems, not that there will suddenly be a deficiency of production.
You seem to be arguing that shortages are simply impossible, because they’re run by “corporate owned businesses”. Great. You are welcome to your opinion. But the idea that shortages simply could not logically ever happen is the one that seems like a wishful narrative to me. Maybe “corporate owned businesses” have never let you down in the past, and you expect that to carry over into the future. I won’t try to dissuade you, and I hope everyone lives up to your elevated opinion of them.
