CVS Experiences 'Temporary Shortages Of Sympathy Cards' During Coronavirus Pandemic

BOSTON (CBS) -- Some CVS locations have a shortage of sympathy cards during the coronavirus pandemic.

The store said "We are seeing a higher demand for sympathy cards than most other types of greeting cards during the pandemic. This demand, in combination with the restricted ability of suppliers to re-stock stores in certain markets, has created temporary shortages of sympathy cards in some locations."
