Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

What’s wild is from my perspective and location, CVS and Walgreens are already gone. They still have stores here but they’re so understafffed and poorly managed that they’re unusable.
CVS and Walgreens are everywhere. I've lived in several cities and always see them. CVS is also in Targets. I use them. Very good pharmacy. I don't think they're going anywhere anytime soon.
Glad you’ve had good experiences. Seeing them everywhere is irrelevant to my point, the physical locations still exist and they’re still “open” and accepting customers but it’s not realistic to actually get service there because it takes days to get medicine and then an hour or more wait at the store to actually get a pharmacist to hand it to you.
It’s all anecdotal, but in my region they’re dead.
Where do you live? I live(d) in the largest metros in the U.S, and have used 5 different CVS pharmacies. Only one was kind of iffy, and it was right by a major state university. The one I currently go to gets the meds the next or even same day, and I rarely wait. Even the busier ones at peak times, I never waited more than 30 minutes.
