Original Note:
No evidence supports assertion that docs are handing out contraception pills "like candy." Embedded article does not support OP's assertion. A study published in Lancet puts risk of clot at 0.05%. We don't know how pills were obtained & they were being used "off label" : https://www.standard.co.uk/news/health/contraceptive-pill-blood-clot-period-pains-teenager-death-layla-b1127719.html
