That's true, it is really implantation that marks the start of the pregnancy. It is logic like "life begins at fertilization" that causes some to classify IUDs as a form of abortion, since their action comes after fertilization. That is wrong. Woman should not be denied birth control, which equals control over their own body and life choices.
I agree with the one above. Taken to it's extreme this sort of argument could lead to banning all birth control entirely. Which leads to the degradation of women in our society.
This post is right on. Brazil is not the third world, they are the second world. Brazil has argued with other pharmaceutical companies over pricing too, always wanting rock bottom prices. But as this says, they have resources. They can afford to pay the second world price. Not first world, second world. That is fair. Africa gets it at cost because they really are the third world.
Isn't it nice to have medicine when we are sick? What will we do when we have driven all the pharmaceutical companies out of business? And don't think public financing will take up the slack. Not in a million years.
