I live in Alberta, Canada. Our health ministry here is embroiled in scandal over $80,000,000 spent on pediatric Tylenol (acetaminophen/paracetamol) purchased from Turkiye, via a contract with someone who gifted expensive things to our government ministers. The medication then went unused and now, as it nears its expiration date, they are proposing “donating” it to Ukraine.
The government is now claiming that the Turkish company they bought it from (Atabay) is “the sole manufacturer of acetaminophen in the European Union”. Does anyone know if that is true or false? It seems unbelievable to me that all the paracetamol/acetaminophen in Europe comes from one Turkish manufacturer?!
