Imitating Amazon, Walmart Tells Government It Can Perform 10 Million to 13 Million Vaccinations Per Month

As you've probably heard by now, on Wednesday, Amazon.com (NASDAQ: AMZN) sent a letter to new U.S. President Joe Biden offering "to assist you in reaching your goal of vaccinating 100 million Americans in the first 100 days of your administration." At the same time, with 800,000 workers at its disposal, a vast logistics network, and a host of retail and warehouse properties to work from, Amazon said it was "prepared to move quickly" to help distribute vaccines. Today, Walmart (NYSE: WMT) raised its hand and declared it could do the same.
