Amazon begins Covid-19 vaccinations for its front-line workers in India

E-commerce giant Amazon is taking its learnings from earlier on-site vaccination events for people above 45 years to bring Covid-19 vaccines to its front-line teams. Over the coming weeks, Amazon is hosting on-site vaccination events administered by licensed health care providers, at an initial set of its buildings in Delhi.

“Every employee is our priority,” said Amazon in a blog post. “We have started the vaccine event with those on the frontline, delivering to our customers and will continue to expand when vaccines become more available.”

The Jeff Bezos-led company said this is an important initiative not only for the health and safety of Amazon employees but for the communities where its teams live and work.
