Problems in China’s Health Care Supplies

China’s health care industry has emerged in the 1980s. With the fast economic development, health care supplies began to fly to the ordinary families. However, the so called “bright industry” gradually turns out to be a kind of “morbid industry”.

The biggest problem is the honesty crisis. Health care supplies are not the necessities for people’s daily life. Thus, manufacturers have to develop various marketing methods to influence the market. They tried to exaggerate the effect of their products in advertisements. Though the advertisements immediately worked, various cheating and misleading were hidden behind this kind of problematic marketing. Besides, most of the common people in China don’t have enough knowledge about health care products. They might easily trust the advertisements and spend money on it blindly.

The consequence is very serious. Some enterprises even added some illicit drugs in the products in order to increase the medical effect, which could persuade more customers to buy their products. However, it’s damaging to people’s health. At last, the consumers couldn’t benefit at all from the health care supplies but suffer a lot.

Therefore, a sound supervising mechanism is urgently needed in China to protect the health of citizens. And those illegal companies should be punished severely.
