Articles from early 2014 say 4 plants are banned, while Ranbaxy's website boasts 21 manufacturing locations.
Interesting, I looked it up and yes, the FDA is banning each plant separately. One could argue that the FDA can only ban the plants they find problems at, however, I would agree with you that Ranbaxy's behavior is bad enough to stop all shipments into the US. Not sure why the FDA decided to be more lenient. Maybe the law governing the FDA limits how far it can go? I don't know.
