The US Supreme Court has issued two significant rulings this week related to medical matters. The high court rejected a settlement agreement by Purdue Pharma, the manufacturer of the opioid painkiller OxyContin, which has caused the deaths of at least 300,000 Americans over 20 years. The court also ruled in a 6-3 decision to allow women in Idaho to undergo emergency abortion procedures in major medical situations, despite the state's strict abortion ban. The rulings have sparked debates on women's rights and accountability in both cases.
