(LEX 18) — If you're heading to Walgreens, you may see a few changes.

The pharmacy chain is now providing face covers for workers at stores and distribution centers to protect employees from coronavirus.

The company says it is testing employees for fevers.

Walgreens is also installing plexi-glass shields to separate cashiers from customers. The store is also changing its hours to allow extra time for deep cleanings.
