Walgreens on Monday announced it will close 150 in-store clinics, or about 40 percent, through the end of 2019, but it will keep 200 open that are in partnership with health care providers.

The Associated Press reported on the development, saying that in August, the chain announced it was closing some 200 stores, which represents 3 percent of the firm’s 9,600 stores across the United States.
