An argument will soon erupt over the fate of the Affordable Care Act ’s mandate that requires health insurance to cover oral contraceptives at no direct out of pocket cost to the patient. This mandate was never explicitly listed in the ACA as one of the “essential health benefits.” Its inclusion was made at the discretion of the HHS Secretary. According to pres sreports, the Trump Administration is about to relax the requirement.The arguments made in favor of loosening the mandate mostly revolve around the employers ’ right to freedom of conscience. Meanwhile, some advocacy groups fear this will mean many women won...

Should only infectious disease specialists be allowed to prescribe antibiotics?
The WHO’s recent announcement of multi-drug resistant strains of gonorrhea raises the specter of a worldwide SuperClap Attack that even the Avengers couldn’t foil. It also comes as yet another ominous reminder of the perils of rampant and indiscriminate antibiotic use.
