Pharmacy closures on city's Northside force some families to wait weeks for critical medications

Pharmacy closures on Jacksonville’s Northside are forcing families to wait days — and even weeks — to get critical medications. Recently, Walgreens closed its Gateway and Soutel stores, and with Harvey’s supermarkets being converted into Aldi’s, there are now only two major pharmacies left in the area. District leaders said the shortage is creating dangerous delays for thousands of people.
