Joanne Pinkerton is an obstetrician and professor at the University of Virginia.
I am begging the FDA and all of us are begging, please remove the box label.
It's not clear when or if the label will be removed. Katie Ariddle, NPR News. This

Matched those vocal pyrotechnics with the ability to make a lyric tug at your heartstrings, and Lane understandably had a devoted following. She recorded dozens of albums, founded a music venue in Britain, and toured the world for five decades with her bandleader husband, John Dankworth. Bob Mondello, NPR News.
