They will come around.
I truly feel CVS will. It was a huge move to stop the sale of tobacco products in their stores. It was 30% of some stores entire sales! They do not like bad publicity and hate being in the news. They will not comment about this like rite aid did because it's not what they do.
If enough complain on social media they may turn the readers back on or at least till the MCX system starts rolling then who knows what will happen.
