Drugstore chain Pharmacists to protest working environment in ‘Pharmageddon’

Pharmageddon

Revelations 13:16-18 “Also it causes all, both small and great, both rich and poor, both free and slave, to be marked on the right hand or the forehead, so that no one can buy or sell unless he has the mark, that is, the name of the beast or the number of its name. This calls for wisdom: let the one who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man, and his number is 666.”

Important Takeaways:

  • ‘Pharmageddon’: Pharmacists, techs to walk out in some states to protest unsafe working conditions
  • Some pharmacy staff from Walgreens and other U.S. drugstore chains plan to stage a nationwide walkout today through Wednesday. “Pharmageddon” is the latest pushback against what pharmacists and technicians call unsafe working conditions.
  • They say they’ve been dealing with understaffed teams, insufficient pay and increasing work expectations imposed by corporate management.
  • An organizer who spoke with CNBC said that the workers planning to walk out appear to be from Pennsylvania, California, and other states, but didn’t say from which stores specifically. It’s not yet clear if any local stores will be affected. And it’s important to note that some independent and retail pharmacy locations have committed to staying open to provide patients with service options.
