In theory yes, and in practice the US is planning on producing certain critical drugs locally, but most drugs will probably continue to be produced in India and China due to cost.
And still charge insanely high prices. A side note: a local used to work at a now-closed child medicine manufacturing facility. His behavior became so volatile, everyone blamed it on that, but also he was in late adolescence under extreme conditions of despair.
The country isn’t wealthy, but some individuals are and fantastically so. They won’t manufacture this stuff at home because it’d mean pharma execs couldn’t afford as many yachts
