FDA was paid by BigPharma to make that recommendation, FDA doesn't do unless FDA pays for it or wants it
I'm not sure how the thread le has anything to do with the article below, but I thought it fit the mold of thread les in this forum.

It's the morning after and the controversy over how to sell emergency contraception still looms.
The Obama administration's top health official stopped plans Wednesday to let the Plan B morning-after pill move onto drugstore shelves next to the condoms.
Overruling scientists at the Food and Drug Administration, Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius decided that young girls shouldn't be able to buy the pill on their own, saying she was worried about confusing 11-year-olds.
For now, Plan B will stay behind pharmacy counters, available without a prescription only to those 17 and older who can prove their age.
It was the latest twist in a nearly decade-long push for easier access to pills that can prevent pregnancy after unprotected sex, and one with election-year implications. The move shocked women's health advocates, a key part of President Barack Obama's Democratic base, as well as major doctors groups that argue over-the-counter sales could lower the nation's high number of unplanned pregnancies.
"Secretary Sebelius took this action after careful review," Obama spokesman Nick Papas said. "As the secretary has stated, Plan B will remain available to all women who need it, and the president supports the secretary's decision."
More in the article, but thought it interesting. I sort of agree too.

Yes, we are all aware of the accuracy of your assessments.
limiting the use of abortifacients shows how much Obama hates babies
I know of a couple of liberal policies that kill people. I will try to post on that a bit later.
While I am not comfortable with anyone under 16 having access to the pills, what would stop them from asking their 18 yr old boyfriend to get the drug?
I don't have a problem with this decision.
I worry about how funny kids think it is to slip others drugs. How many girls will lose their babies that want babies? Now I may be wrong about that, I forget how these drugs work. Could that be an issue?
What does Warsaw University of Technology have to do with this thread?
No worries. Kids who would slip girls a morning after pill are just sympathetic to your idea of forced government contraception and have taken it upon themselves to prevent more welfare babies from being brought in to this world.
the only issue I see here is STD occurrence might skyrocket.
Abortion in a pill. Who knew it would ever come to that?
Not my idea. Have you had too much of that local peyote lately?
I guess I have you confused with the other Wild Cobra, the one who started this thread.
My apologies.
Eh. Theres a pill for that, too. Let teens just their brains out and get 'em on the government dole as quick as humanly possible. The government solves and absolves all.
WC wants to shoot anchor babies in the head as they crown.
So Bad. He can't even look at them.
never look Massa in the eyes
She could take him.
I see. You lack the comprehension of what I said, and jumped to incorrect conclusion.
I'll forgive you this time. Maybe you should go back and read that thread again.
You sure have a lot of disgusting ideas. Maybe you missed your calling. Ever think about producing horror films?
I did. It was just as funny/ridiculous as the first time around.I'll forgive you this time. Maybe you should go back and read that thread again.![]()
