I can't find it with the Google searches I've found, nor can I find any more information that might help me locate it. I found one article that claimed the study was flawed (I think the exact phrase was "riddled with flaws," but I'm not certain) so I'd like to do some more research on the topic.

Why is that? Actual human beings who are currently living - not embryos without wombs or foreseeable wombs in the future - real, living humans are being harmed every day, dying all the time, or almost worse - having to live with the devastating and irreversible side effects from drugs. Why no Bush-ian uproar over this? Why do these people care more about embryos slated for destruction anyway than they do those who are already living? Why is it that those who make billions off single, harmful drugs have no accountability outside the pithy results of class action lawsuits for death and injury caused by their blatant greed? Oh that's right - I forgot. The living aren't nearly as important as the "pre-born". (That's right - sarcasm).
