As the company continues to assess the coronavirus pandemic response across America, Walgreens has announced this morning that beginning today, most of their stores nationwide will resume standard operating hours. The company continues to evaluate and adjust certain operations and offerings to meet the needs of customers during the pandemic.
Walgreens officials say certain stores, specifically those located in tourist regions, downtown city centers, or markets with government-mandated curfews, will continue operating under the adjusted hours implemented in March. California stores will resume standard operating hours beginning May 18th due to local regulations. Customers can visit the store locator for specific Walgreens store and pharmacy hours.
