Quick Glance: Pharmacies Introduce Mifepristone Abortion Pill

The two major US pharmacy chains are set to launch the sale of the prescription abortion pill, Mifepristone, in the upcoming weeks.

In the following month, CVS and Walgreens will commence the distribution in select states where abortion is legally permitted.

Their primary focus is on states where pharmacists are authorized to furnish Mifepristone, while keeping an eye on regions facing legal obstacles to abortion restrictions.

Mifepristone, the pioneering FDA-recommended component of a two-pill regimen for terminating pregnancy, obtained initial approval in 2000, marking a significant milestone in reproductive healthcare.

What stores are open on Easter 2024? Details on Walmart, Hy-Vee and more: Have a last minute grocery run this Easter? Here's what stores will be open.

Quick Glance: Why Christians Wake Up Before Sunrise to Celebrate Easter

On Easter morning, many Christians gather before dawn to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus, the son of God, as the sun rises. March 31 marks Easter Sunday this year for the majority of Christians worldwide and the tradition of sunrise services.

Easter celebrations are not fixed to a specific date, but move between March 22 and April 25 based on a lunar calendar calculation. The biblical symbolism of the Easter worship of the early risers is rooted in the New Testament Gospels.

It is unclear if the Moravian Church was the first to hold Easter sunrise services, but their annual tradition dates back to 1732. Moravians are known for their brass and wind instrument trombone choirs that accompany the Easter services.

In addition to the traditional liturgies, the Easter sunrise service includes a silent procession to the Salem Moravian Graveyard, also known as 'God's Acre,' ending among the graves of past generations. Other Easter service traditions include Easter vigils and services in various styles at different locations.
