Lmao, not a piracy problem. Just the Yemenis carrying out legitimate naval interdiction operations and interference from Israel’s allies. Mfkers pretending this is a piracy problem like off the coast of Somalia when it’s just ships affiliated with Israel being interdicted.

          In 2017, the comprehensive reform pilot of urban public hospitals was fully carried out, with 93.9 percent of urban public hospitals canceling drug markup, effectively controlling the unreasonable growth of medical expenses in public hospitals. In May 2018, the National Healthcare Security Administration was formally established as an institution directly under The State Council. China’s medical security undertakings entered the stage of development in a more standardized way, with comprehensive reform of public hospitals, canceled drug markups, official drug purchase with volume, DRGS and other new policies
