"One of Britain's largest supermarket chains plans to give teen-agers the morning-after contraceptive pill for free as part of a national effort to reduce the number of teen pregnancies.... The morning-after pill is a high dose of birth control pill taken within 72 hours of unprotected sex to prevent pregnancy. It is already available free with a prescription, but many women do not want to wait for a doctor's appointment and buy it over the counter for a fee."

In Washington, you can get the Morning-After pill for $30 at almost all Bartells and Walgreens drug stores, without a prescription... How cool is that?
