Nice investigative work - this is the first I’ve heard about the contamination. It looks like China caught the issue back in March, and its highly likely more of the supply chain was compromised. This would make it subject to further Chinese boycotts, endangering the Argentian economy and screwing Milei because it makes things bumpy for Peter Thiel in his new home.

This is why Trump is both helping Milei and refusing to say where the beef is from.

Btw, these are the side effects of chloramphenicol:

Serious and fatal blood dyscrasias (aplastic anemia, hypoplastic anemia, thrombocytopenia, and granulocytopenia) are known to occur after the administration of chloramphenicol.

There have been reports of aplastic anemia attributed to chloramphenicol which later terminated in leukemia.

Blood dyscrasias have occurred after both short-term and prolonged therapy with this drug.
