Published Date: 17 November 2008
Mexico City is giving out free Viagra and other impotence drugs to men 70 and older.
Mayor Marcelo Ebrard said the city is implementing the plan because sexuality "has a lot to do with quality of life and our happiness."

City Health Secretary Armando Ahued said the government will start handing out doses of one or two Viagra, Levitra or Cialis pills on December 1.

They will be distributed at three centres that specialise in sexual health for the elderly. The men will receive medical examinations before receiving the pills.

#6: I thought it was there on NHS years ago. I remember seeing in the mid-1990s, when it was quite new and 10 quid a pill, pensioners in the UK out protesting and demanding they be given it free. Don't tell me their demands were not met.

No, you misunderstood. They wanted to get jiggy for free. Couldn't accept the closure of the Salamander St tolerance zone. Gorgie Tony was there waving his......placard.
