Over the last fourteen months, Cure CVS researchers have visited CVS stores across the country, examining the comparitive conditions of stores in predominantly white, wealthy neighborhoods and those in predominantly non-white, low-income neighborhoods. Using a number of criteria to compare the stores, what the researchers found was shocking.
Stores in non-white, low-income neighborhoods were more likely to have not only expired goods and medicines on the shelves, but were significantly more likely to have more strident anti-theft measures in place, regardless of the store's crime rate.
