I know a young woman who has the misfortune to have contracted genital
herpes.
She is on a daily regimen of Valtrex to prevent symptoms from
manifesting themselves.
Recently she took her prescription to a pharmacist who was apparently a
fundamentalist Christian.
Not only did he refuse to fill the prescription, but he tore it up and
handed it back to her, saying, "God is punishing you for your sin."
Er, is that tearing up of the prescription legal in that state? If not,
she should press charges.
I know that in some places, the pharmacist has the right to refuse to
fill the prescription, but it's illegal for the pharmacist to prevent
someone else from doing so.
