CVS

Join host Cameron English as he sits down Dr. Josh Bloom to break down these stories on Episode 36 of the Science Dispatch podcast:

Well, this was sure eye-opening.

If you're ever in the mood for some yuks, take a casual stroll up and down the aisles in a CVS pharmacy and see if you can't find a bunch of stuff that shouldn't be sold there (maybe even anywhere). It's not that hard.

In the fall of 2018, Aetna and CVS merged, joining a health insurer with a large pharmaceutical business. With great excitement, they announced earlier this year their HealthHubs.

I just got the following email from CVS: "5 Years Ago We Quit Selling Tobacco."

With the announcement of CVS's HealthHubs, the synergy of data and business is rapidly coming to the health sector; health systems will become havens only for the severely acutely ill, the more complex, the expensive.

Every once in awhile I get something wrong, and I have no problem admitting it.
