This is all by design to lead to the implementation of government owned pharmacies, IMO.

What about the rural white folks?
It's at least 10 miles to the closest pharmacy for us... I highly doubt I'm going to live longer/die sooner because of it.

Please. Liberals are so dramatic.

Calif should just pass a new law saying that private businesses it determines to be critical cannot cease operations at any location without state approval.
That will be in line with the majority of laws in the state.

OMG, a whole mile? The nearest to me is six miles. I'm in a pharmacy desert! I'm gonna die!

This is so retarded.
Natives get free health care. Not just free health care, but transportation, housing, food, prescriptions while getting their free healthcare.

Not one mention of the rampant theft and looting that's causing pharmacies to leave these areas. When you have "members of the community" steal at will with no repercussions, businesses will pick up and leave
Exactly this. Until the day arrives that we can freely discuss this without fear of retribution of some sort, nothing will change for the better.

Goddamned Republicans, it's all their fault.

Yeah, 1 mile is a dumb metric. I live in a pharmacy desert and a food desert by that definition.
Good point, I forgot that I also live in a food desert. Publix is five miles away.

Stop fricking robbing the stores in your neighborhood and they won’t leave

Well can't the CVS, Walgreens and RAs be replaced with the Wal Marts and Grocery stores that have pharmacies?
There are CVS pharmacies inside Target stores and SavOn pharmacies inside of Albertson's. This seems to be a pretty good model.

Are you serious? How about California pass a law that says if you steal you go to jail.

How come people that live in the country don't constantly bitch about "Pharmacy/Food/whatever Deserts"

Pharmacy Desserts are a bigger risk for this cohort.

They will just steal them out of the mailbox or rob the mailman.

I’m sure a lot of candy is stolen when these now, or soon-to-be, shuttered pharmacies are ransacked.

Hundreds of drug dealers out of work because Walgreens shut down their supply of stolen pills.
