The chain is now offering the service seven days a week at almost all of its store locations. 

The companies will open 29 co-located clinics at Walgreens stores in Houston, Austin and El Paso as they continue to push for 600 of the clinics over the next four years.  

Walgreens Boots Alliance and Walgreens executives recently highlighted the company's partnership with iA and VillageMD as big areas of focus as Walgreens looks to grow its role as a health destination.

For the quarter, WBA’s sales grew by 12.1% year over year to $34 billion and its earnings per share were $1.27, compared with a loss of $2.05 per share a year ago.

Placer.ai vice president of marketing Ethan Chernofsky noted in a blog post that all of the chains are seeing improvements in monthly visits since the beginning of the year.

Customers getting a COVID-19 vaccine at the retailer will receive $25 in Walgreens Cash rewards or a $25 gift card.

Vice President Kamala Harris stopped by a Walgreens pop-up clinic in Greenville, S.C., and encouraged Americans to get the COVID-19 vaccine.
