Iowa’s Republican-led Legislature passed a bill banning most abortions after roughly six weeks of pregnancy during a marathon session Tuesday. Gov. Kim Reynolds said she would sign the bill on Friday.

Gov. Katie Hobbs said the rule will go into effect immediately. It applies to self-administered birth control. Patients 18 or older must complete a screening and blood pressure test.

Attorneys for Wyoming failed to show that the ban wouldn’t harm the plaintiffs before their lawsuit is resolved, Teton County Judge Melissa Owens ruled after hearing arguments from both sides.

Opvee is similar to naloxone, the life-saving drug that has been used for decades to quickly counter overdoses of heroin, fentanyl and prescription painkillers.

A federal judge in Texas who previously ruled to dismantle the Affordable Care Act struck down a key part of the law. Opponents say the ruling jeopardizes preventive care for millions of Americans.

The Danish drugmaker’s move follows a similar announcement by rival Eli Lilly earlier this month. More than 8 million Americans use insulin, according to the American Diabetes Association.

The defendants allegedly took part in a scam that sold more than 7,600 fraudulent nursing degree diplomas from three Florida-based nursing schools, according to recently unsealed federal indictments.

The agency in a memo Friday said the emergency contraception pills are not the same as abortion pills — which end a pregnancy — a fact that has long been understood in the medical community.

Previously, the FDA had advised taking two rapid antigen tests over two or three days to rule out infection. But the agency says new studies suggest that protocol can miss too many infections.

Australia’s Northern Territory in 1995 became the first place in the world to legalize voluntary euthanasia, but the law was quickly overturned two years later. The new bill seeks to lift the ban.
