THE EPA IS NOW SCREENING DRINKING WATER FOR ABORTION DRUGS
The EPA is preparing to screen drinking-water samples against a library of more than 1,400 emerging contaminants, including pesticides, PFAS, and hundreds of pharmaceuticals.
Two substances on that list are drawing particular attention: mifepristone and misoprostol, drugs used in abortions.
Their inclusion raises serious questions about what may be entering public water supplies, how often they are detected, and what long-term exposure could mean for public health.
Nurse Nicole (
