Has anyone run into PREP/HIV med shortages?

I’ve seen a couple of posts on other social media sites about CVS or Walgreens no longer carrying these medications. Haven’t seen a news site confirm anything, but very concerned with how these administration might attack access to the medications.

My pharmacy never stocks it but they order it and it's in the next day for me to pick up

These drugs are stupidly expensive and take up space on the pharmacy shelves. they also dont move all that fast (fortunately) so pharmacies dont like keeping them around. They order them in from warehouses to reduce financial risk for the pharmacy. Mine they have to ship to my house as local pharmacies dont want to even stock it that way anymore.
