Walgreens is closing about 50 of its VillageMD clinics inside Florida stores next month, according to several industry reports.

The closings are expected to happen after March 15, but according to the company’s website, 14 of its 52 clinics in the state have already shut down, including ones in St. Petersburg, New Port Richey, Nokomis and Zephyrhills.
