Walmart has announced a same-day prescription delivery service, expanding its pharmacy services across 49 states by January 2024. This move comes amid concerns about a "pharmacy desert" as many drugstores close their doors, including recent announcements from Walgreens and CVS. While online services can reduce costs and save time, brick-and-mortar pharmacies provide essential health services like vaccinations. Walmart's new service will allow customers to combine prescriptions with general store items in one delivery.
