As of October 1, 2008, San Francisco will be the first city in the nation to ban the sale of tobacco products at most pharmacies. (The law bans the sale of all tobacco products at pharmacies in the city, but big-box stores like Costco and supermarkets like Safeway will still be allowed to sell ...
To me this measure seems rather hypocritical, when those same pharmacies have isle after isle of junk food, soda and toxic personal care products that are all proven to be harmful to one's health. If this issue was truly concerning "health", then those items would be banned as well. That is of course not to mention the majority of pharmaceutical drugs that damage health. Pharmacies and health and nothing in common, or they would be stocked with high quality organic produce, herbs and other products that are actually proven to improve health.
