Being a now life member of the medication set it is quite amazing how many medications are running into short supply unable to get out of the EU and to Australia due to Covid and the lack of flights. Generic and alternative brand manufacturers are having a field day as long as they are not in Europe.

I had no idea until we needed to have a very special type of scan that due to the lack of enthusiasm by successive governments to upgrade Lucas Heights specialised medical isotopes have to be flown in from France when you need one of these special scans. Even before this there were long delays as they have a very short half life and need to basically get put on the plane flown to Australia and taken straight to the hospital and used before they degrade and are not effective.

Three cheers for free trade and not being self sufficient in anything. I wonder if there are delays in bringing antique French Mantle Clocks into Australia.

Let us all hope that there is a break through shortly that will allow something like normal and fingers crossed AKIDA technology can play a part as you stated.

My opinion only.
