Culture Warring in Guanajuato

With no warning, explanation, or public debate, the state's public health system removed the morning-after pill from the shelves of the Guanajuato's pharmacies. (I assume only the public pharmacies did so.) Employees of the pharmacies told Excélsior that they recently received an email (it doesn't say who sent it) ordering the pill's immediate removal. After something of a public outcry (a PRI deputy called it a flagrant violation of women's rights), the pills are to return by December 15.
