Santiago, Chile, Oct 24, 2007 / 09:04 am
The organization “Muevete Chile” has launched a campaign to support Chilean pharmacies that refuse to sell the abortion pill (Plan B) and that are being threatened with millions in fines by the government.
The organization has called on Chileans to show their support for pharmacists of the chains Cruz Verde, Ahumada and Salcobrand.
“If these pharmacies are forced to sell the pill, not only would it be an attack against life but also against freedom,” Muevete Chile said. “The only thing left then would be for them to force us to buy it,” the group said, pointing out that it has been scientifically proven that the pill prevents implantation and is therefore abortifacient.
Therefore, support the main pharmacy chains in their decision not to by the abortion pill and congratulate them for their strong opposition to this flagrant attack against life and freedom,” the organization told Chileans.
