There were many distributors who hoarded supplies of ACTH. They were spread all over the country. This medicine hadn't been used much in the past but later on, experiments proved that this medicine was very effective against infantile spasms.
And although infantile spasms weren't very common, if you added up all the cases across the country, it wasn't a small number.
More importantly, this medicine had been too cheap in the past and they had been unprofitable. Hence, when ACTH became a lifesaver for infants, the distributors started to have some ideas.
They immediately started hoarding the medicine.
Even some hospitals couldn't manage to obtain the medicine. It became one of the hardest medications to obtain.
When Lin Fan sent his Weibo post, it drew the attention of many people.
At the same time, in a WeChat group, which was the group of distributors, some people started discussing.
