Pzizer has issued a recall of 1 million birth control pills under 3 different brand and generic names, after a factory dispensing error caused packages to contain too many pills or too few. This story is a lead in to October’s top story: the 2012 baby boom.
A Pfizer spokesperson encourages customers to return the recalled pills, or just stop sleeping around.
On the upside, the factory mistake takes some of the burden of responsibility off of the many women who just forgot to take their pill anyway.
Women who got too many of the hormone pills have been outraged, then depressed, then apologetic, then flirty, and then aggressively amorous.
Instead of continuing to take the pills in their current package, some women are just taking the placebos.
On an interesting social note, experts estimate that the need to replace 1 million defective pills will likely prevent sex from taking place by as many as 2 drunk strangers.
Many users of the pill are planning to launch a class action lawsuit, but won’t have time to pursue it once they are trying to care for a newborn.
