Walmart

The retail giant on April 30 cited an unsustainable business model when it announced it would close its 51 Walmart Health locations in five states. That included 23 stores in Florida.

The south St. Petersburg neighborhood has been designated a federal food desert ever since a Walmart closed down seven years ago.

In addition to the clinics, the company is taking down its virtual health service after concluding “there is not a sustainable business model for us to continue.”

Justice for App Workers claims hundreds of other delivery drivers working for Walmart in Florida are victims of a "predatory scam ring" that has hacked into the retailer's app to steer deliveries to a group of "rogue" drivers.

The retail giant becomes the latest major player in the drug industry to announce a plan to settle lawsuits filed by state and local governments over the toll of opioids sold at its pharmacies.

Attorney General Ashley Moody announced that as part of the settlement Walmart has agreed to dispense 672,000 naloxone kits to first responders.

From dropping packages to collecting data, Tampa and Orlando residents can expect increased buzzing from Walmart drones outside their front doors.

Walmart is not the first national retail chain to cut off cigarette sales even on a trial basis, but it is the largest.

Customers don't have to wear masks, effective immediately. Starting Tuesday, fully vaccinated employees don't either. Everyone's on an honor system and won't have to provide proof.

Walmart and Sam’s Club will join Publix and Southeastern Grocers' chains Winn-Dixie and Harveys in providing vaccinations across the state.

The giant retailer shipped billions of opioid pills to pharmacies nationwide. An NPR investigation found employees warned company executives their stores were being used by "pill mill" doctors.

Damages could total in the billions. "Walmart had the responsibility and the means to help prevent the diversion of prescription opioids. Instead, for years, it did the opposite," the government said.
