US Doctors Back Circumcision
ananyo writes "On 27 August, a report by the American Academy of Pediatrics concludes for the first time that, overall, boys will be healthier if circumcised.

The researchers estimate that each circumcision that is not performed costs the U.S. health-care system $313."
