This article doesn't even mention that one factor in the out-of-control disease rates among British children and young adults may be the introduction of the morning-after pill. According to testimony offered to the FDA in 2004, sexually-transmitted infections soared in the British Isles when Plan B (the morning-after pill) was made available without prescription in 2000.
Ignoring the warning signals from the UK, California subsequently became one of the first states to permit the sale of Plan B over-the-counter without an age limit. (Compiled testimony of Wendy Wright, Carole Denner, and Jill Stanek, "The Morning-After Pill: An Ill Wind This Way Blows.") So now, a study published in September in the Californian Journal of Health Promotion reports that in 2005 there were 1.1 million new cases of sexually-transmitted infections among young people in California. The 1.1 million figure is ten times higher than previously believed, and it means that in the 15-24 age group, diseases such as gonorrhea, HIV, and HPV infect one out of every four young Californians.
