Telemedicine abortion provider locks horns with US drug regulator

A European charity that provides mail-order medical abortions has pledged to continue providing its services despite a recent order from the US Food and Drugs Administration (FDA) to stop. Run by Dutch physician Rebecca Gomperts, Aid Access is an online service that posts FDA-approved abortion pills – mifepristone and misoprostol – to women in the early stages of pregnancy in the US.
