Ask HN: Thought Exercise regarding RX dependency

Many of the prescription drugs as far as I know come from China and India. Should trade be cut off from China and India:

- how long would each country have until they run out of prescription drugs? pharmacy, lab and national guard stockpiles

- how long would it take each country to ramp up their own production of said drugs?

- would some countries just let their supplies run out? Eugenics, allowing blood pressure rebounds and strokes among other things to run their course to reduce long term health care costs.

just something that crossed my mind after listening to Doomberg for a while.
