I don't understand what is expected here. Nobody can get masks or sanitizer. What little there is is getting redirected to hospitals. It's not even a money thing.

This person is advocating boycotting Amazon and going to local grocery stores instead. What the hell? How is that better?

It's expected that Amazon would protect their workers by being transparent about the situation, implementing special procedures in warehouses to prevent the infection from spreading between workers, offering workers paid time leave when they show symptoms.

They could, for instance, limit the orders they accept to base necessities like food, cleaning supplies, etc.

Maybe more aggressively than

Not sure about you - but there's a 30 day shipping delay for me on non-essential Prime products in stock.

I agree that setting rules and transparency is a good thing - but a lot of that probably depends on the management at that particular warehouse.
