Because people who can afford Amazon prime and prices are the most vulnerable

Can be elderly. Family members could very well be buying on Amazon & having it shipped to those in their family +70. This is what I would be doing if my parents were older & nobody was able from the family to deliver to them.

Not everyone has Amazon prime.

I mean, so far yes. I think people with disposable income and those who travel a lot have been early adopters when it comes to getting the virus. Politicians, professional athletes, and rich people seem disproportionately likely to be infected, and I wouldn't be surprised if that imbalance still existed once you accounted for the differences in test availability. ofc that's my North America-centric perception which may change in the coming months
