Either way, nothing about how the medical system is in China/Vietnam/Thailand/Korea is going to change whats going on the US/Canada unless medical professionals are willing to take huge paycuts as well as medical supply companies doing the same.
In addition, China has been known to spit in the face of our patent laws and create their own generic versions anyway. That saves them huge costs on drugs, where the US probably pays more than any other country.
