A USA Today article mentions:
The recommendation of Food and Drug Administration (FDA) advisory panels this month to allow the morning-after pill to be sold over the counter is not supported by medical facts and may very well bring about devastating consequences. [...]
Women taking a regular-strength birth control pill generally meet with their physician at least once per year because the drug has been linked to fatal conditions such as heart attack, stroke and breast cancer. The morning-after pill is 40 times stronger than regular birth control, and it therefore poses an even greater risk of causing dangerous side effects in women and girls who take the drug unsupervised. Additionally, rather than prevent pregnancy, this pill may act as a drug-induced abortion, which would kill an already-developing human life.
Birth control pills need a doctor's supervision. Something forty times as powerful does not. Hmmmmm. Something here is obviously much more important here than protecting womens' health and well being.
What on earth could it be?
The Bush administration must get the FDA back on the track of protecting health rather than pushing the pet projects of Planned Parenthood & Co.
To some, abortion is a holy sacrament which must be immune any questions, limits, or restraints. Womens' health be damned if such concerns interfere.
