DEERFIELD, Ill. -- Walgreens has launched a free home delivery program for the COVID-19 oral antiviral therapy drug, Paxlovid.
The service, which launched Thursday, is in partnership with DoorDash and Uber Health, and available to those with a prescription, CNN reported.
It's in response to the White House's call for pharmacies to help make winter healthier for Americans.
