This too, especially the way that a lot of retail has started to graft pharmacies onto their stores.

That's going to continue being a problem for the foreseeable future, apparently the phama companies rein in distribution (thereby creating shortages) in order to avoid having more pervasive "empty shelf" shortages somehow. I'm not on the inside track of exact details, but first heard about it during COVID when they were able to blame it on "distribution & manufacturing shortfalls", and people were coming up short on stuff like ADD/psychiatric/pain medication.
