Recently, several overseas media reports showed that influenza, the coronavirus, and the respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), the three respiratory viruses (respiratory syncytial virus) have taken the US by storm, leading to an unprecedented rise in demand for cold medicines and fever-reducing drugs. Among them, children's fever-reducing drugs are the most popular, and many platforms are facing shortages. In order to ensure the supply of medicines, US pharmacy chains introduced purchase restriction policies. On December 19, local time, Reuters reported that the purchase of children's fever-reducing drugs in CVS's offline pharmacies and drug sales websites is limited to two. Walgreens currently has no restrictions on offline stores, but on its drug sales website, the purchase limit of over-the-counter children's fever-reducing drugs, such as ibuprofen and acetaminophen, is limited to six pieces.
