India revokes ban on export of hydroxychloroquine

It is being used in countries such as the U.S. as a possible line of treatment for COVID-19

India on Tuesday announced that it had rescinded its earlier ban on the export of malaria drug hydroxychloroquine (HCQ), which is now being used in countries such as the U.S. as a possible line of treatment for COVID-19.

“In view of the humanitarian aspects of the pandemic, it has been decided that India would licence paracetamol and HCQ in appropriate quantities to all our neighbouring countries who are dependent on our capabilities. We will also be supplying these essential drugs to some nations that have been particularly badly affected by the pandemic,” Ministry of External Affairs spokesperson Anurag Srivastava said.

 

The MEA announcement came hours after U.S. President Donald Trump said that India could invite “retaliation” if it withheld supplies of HCQ for which the U.S., Brazil and other countries have already placed advance orders.

Trump-Modi telephonic talk

I spoke to [PM Modi] yesterday, a good talk. I would be surprised [if India refused to supply HCQ], because India does very well by the U.S. For many years they have been taking advantage of the United States on trade….I spoke to him and said, we appreciate your allowing the supply to come out. If he doesn’t allow it come out, that would be ok, but of course there may be retaliation, why wouldn’t there be?” Mr. Trump said at a press conference in Washington. He also told reporters in a separate briefing that the U.S. already had a national stockpile of about 29 million capsules of HCQ.

While the drug’s efficacy is not yet clinically proven, Mr. Trump has been a proponent of its use, calling it a “gamechanger”. The Indian Council for Medical Research has also cleared HCQ to be used as a prophylaxis, or preventive medication, by doctors, nurses and other health staff.

Despite the requirement, the Centre said it had assessed that current stocks of HCQ and other drugs that had been freed for export were sufficient for “for all possible contingencies”. The MEA also denied criticism that its decision to reverse its ban had been taken under pressure from the U.S. and other countries.

“Like any responsible government, our first obligation is to ensure that there are adequate stocks of medicines for the requirement of our own people. In order to ensure this, some temporary steps were taken to restrict exports of a number of pharmaceutical products,” the spokesperson said.

Of course, this is a business opportunity for india pharma companies because, USA dont import medications from China. At least for some time. 

They are doing the covering things to support their ban lift on the medication. 

 

By the way, india ki kavalsina stock ready ga pettukunnaroo... ledho?

Manamey lock down lo unnam..... don’t know when we can lift it completely. India is leading generic drug producer to the world. Kottaga origedhi emi undadu..... corona ayyaka US elections mood loki pothaaru...... next as usual Pak ki help eltundi..... don’t expect any trade deals! 
 

if India wants a trade deal, trump wants their dairy products in India including milk. Melika pedataadu!

Small dictator surrendered to big dictator. It's natural. Similarly turkey president surrendered to Putin. They believe in might is right.  Can modi raise voice against china similar to Pakistan? 

Dictator's might come from his country economy, military and country success in different fields. Mostly it comes from people hardwork and  visionary leadership.
