A former U.S. Senator has voiced concerns that a proposed Treasury Department restriction on American biotech investments in China could inadvertently harm U.S. companies and patients. The senator argues that the broad scope of the Comprehensive Outbound Investment National Security (COINS) Act, if applied to the entire biotech sector, would hinder U.S. firms' ability to develop medicines efficiently. This could lead Chinese companies to partner with rivals, potentially diminishing U.S. influence over future drug development and increasing reliance on foreign sources for critical treatments. AI
