evolved with the times into various forms perfectly adapted to whatever their niche may be.

just like pigeons, owls, crocodiles, finches, etc.

Even the entire 1% is $160,000.

This makes no sense. Assuming the two factory halves have equal revenue:

$16,000,000 × 0.0001% = $160 [edit: i mean, $16]

sigh I knew alekwithak’s comment would get misinterpreted and downvoted.

FFS, the negative reaction against the stream of “unreasonable” questions posed above is exactly the problem. A question is asked of a professional warrants a clear compassionate response, not prejudice and derision.

Yes, the single aspect of Vitamin K1 injections/oral for neonates is highly effective uncontroversial science based medicine, but one needs to remember the context: so much of what parents are pushed to do medically around pregnancy and childbirth in a hospital-based birth is controversial and questionable, and in many cases the norms pushed by hospitals have evidence against them yet are still pushed by that system (for example: GBS testing & prophylactic antibiotics, gestational diabetes testing, routine induction before 42-43 weeks, continuous electronic fetal monitoring, circumcision).

In any case, prophylactic vitamin K1 can be offered orally if the parent is averse to shots for the newborn, sidestepping much of the perceived issue. It’s unconsciable that this is not offered in some places (USA).

Oral vitamin K1 is almost as effective as injected K1, and most countries seem to offer it orally as an alternative to injected. Oral is pretty much just as effective as injected. 1, 2

The article doesn’t mention oral. Is it still not approved in the US? (It’s the same formulation as that injected).

It’s very cheap. In Australia it costs ~9AUD (~7USD) for a single dose vial with oral syringe without subsidies.

The trouble in Australia with the Fairphone models is that some/all networks are blocking them due to a perceived/actual risk they may not work reliably on Australian networks, and Fairphone has not done what the networks demand for that approval. (There’s a heightened risk-aversion here at the moment due to a few highly-publicised emergency-call routing/connection/fallback failures).

It’s a work in progress though, and it should work already/eventually:
