CVS is set to close a number of pharmacies located within Target stores across the US. The closures, which will occur between February and April, are part of CVS's efforts to reduce its store footprint. This decision has sparked concerns about the impact on diverse neighborhoods, with reports of other drug stores also shuttering in minority areas. CVS's move has drawn criticism and outrage from residents and former NAACP president, particularly in locations such as Roxbury in Boston and Dorchester's Fields Corner. The closures are expected to affect 'select' Target CVS pharmacy locations and have raised questions about access to essential healthcare services in these communities.
