Amazon Offers Logistics and On-Site Vaccine Support to Biden Administration
Amazon pledges its operations, technology, and healthcare partnerships to help President Biden achieve his goal of vaccinating 100 million Americans in 100 days.
Amazon offers its vast logistics network and technological capabilities to assist the Biden administration with the massive COVID-19 vaccine rollout. In a public letter to President Biden, Amazon Worldwide Consumer CEO Dave Clark commits the company to helping vaccinate 100 million Americans in the first 100 days of the new administration.
The company secures an agreement with a licensed third-party occupational healthcare provider to administer vaccines directly on-site at Amazon facilities. Clark emphasizes that Amazon stands ready to move quickly once the vaccines become fully available to its essential workforce.
Beyond on-site vaccinations for its own employees, Amazon promises to leverage its operations, information technology, and communications expertise to support broader federal vaccination efforts. Clark notes that the immense scale of the company allows it to make a meaningful and immediate impact in the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic.
