The specific problem, yes, but the root, not at all; The company should be shut down, sued, it's bosses imprisoned if need be, and serve as a warning to the many, many, MANY other companies who take shortcuts knowing there will be little to no punishment -- and none that will outweigh profits made. You ever wonder why Japan is having so many problems coming up with an actual possible vaccine that can compete? Yes men don't help on the world stage, and virus don't "please cooperate" or care about corner cutting.
