Patients: If you rely on mail order med delivery, you may want to look into a different courier.
Prescribers: please be aware meds are not being delivered.

So when a patient comes to you and asks you to write the Rx again because they never got the mail order delivery?
Whatever skepticism you may have felt appropriate because of the reliability of @USPS in the before times? That's no longer operative.
