I think it could be a positive thing for many patients - being able to afford necessary medication, that is.

On the other hand, brick and mortar drugstores closing could not only negatively impact pharmacists (and pharmacy techs too), but also patients who are part of the geriatric population who are less likely to use online services.

Additionally, I'm concerned that the conversion from brick and mortar to delivering medications could possibly increase theft and cause an increase in crime, especially with the possibility of controlled substances being in peoples mailboxes.

I feel like mail order is just their first step. PillPack was a relatively small player in the grand scheme of things. The points you mentioned alone are why brick and mortar pharmacies will ALWAYS be a necessity in some form. I dont think its out of the realm of possibility to say they will venture into that if this goes well. CVS for example does both brick and mortar and mail order
