House Republicans have urged President Joe Biden to resolve a nationwide shortage of medical dye amid an ongoing supply chain crisis, which has prevented hundreds of patients from getting image scans used to diagnose cancers and other diseases.

The dwindling supply is a result of the prolonged COVID-19 lockdowns by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and the nation’s overreliance on Chinese-made medical products, the lawmakers said in a letter dated June 13.
