Excerpt:

No prescription or physician 's examination needed : The nation 's largest team of obstetricians and gynecologists states birth control tablets should be offered over the counter, like condoms. Tuesday's surprise opinion from these gatekeepers of contraception could increase longtime efforts by women 's supporters to make the pill more obtainable. But no one anticipates the pill to be offered without a prescribed any type of time soon : A business would need to find government consent first, and it's unclear if any type of are considering it. Plus there are big concerns about what such a move would mean for numerous women 's pocketbooks if it were not covered by insurance. Still, energy might be developing.

Key:

  • Aggregate Sentiment is meant to be an indicator of an individual's overall sentiment.
  • The Mean is meant to be an indicator of an individual's average comment sentiment.
  • The Standard Deviation, when there are enough quotes, will indicate an individual's consistency of sentiment (i.e. a Standard Deviation of 0 would mean they were very consistent in their sentiment and 1 would mean they were very inconsistent).

Note that quote stats are likely to be meaningless beyond the aggregate score due to the tiny sample size. However, they are always provided just in case you find something useful there.
