Were bioaccumulation responsible (assuming ubiquitous environmental lead), the animal-based products should show higher levels of contamination. The fact that the opposite is true suggests some alternate method for contamination. Also, has anyone tested users of these products for lead poisoning?

Assuming the latest raft of tariffs against China stay in place, their economic problems are going to get even worse. As for "political stability", it's effectively a dictatorship so what do you expect?
Wait, China is just one guy? Who knew?!
Did anyone else see this as "DirecTV Will Soon Bring Aids to Your Screensaver"?
American "oligarchs" (the word you're looking for is plutocrats) have been making bank importing cheap shit from China for decades. Now their shit is getting banned. Oops.
