    But this problem can be addressed through competition. That’s why we’ve also taken the historic step of having @US_FDA work on how to allow the safe importation of drugs when sole-source drugs see these kinds of price spikes. https://go.usa.gov/xUs3g  (3/3)

        Speaking of historic steps why hasn't your office come clean all details about the family separation catastrophe; tell us (U.S.) all and let us decide what the next step is.

        Agree that competition is critical to addressing problem, so related efforts by @HHSGov & @US_FDA are appreciated. However, current reimbursement levels for generics in US are negatively impacting market competition, and limited importation scheme will not remedy that issue.

        That’s not a bad idea. But why just single-source? The rationale for your strategy falls apart if it’s about cost. Price increases or not.
