Should come as a surprise to absolutely nobody.
Amazon's cost cutting race-to-the-bottom approach needs to stay as far away from the general population as possible.
While I do welcome a company like Amazon getting into the pharmacy space and using their power to lower drug costs, the potential for abuse is too great.
And that's without mentioning the staff of trained nurses and health professionals being managed under the same approach Amazon takes to manage its warehouse workers....

Unless Amazon was spending to R&D new medicine, lobbying to reduce patent lengths, or constructing their own manufacturing facilities, there was no margin to be had here. Walmart/Costco/CVS/Walgreens already have the dispensing of medicines to public down to single digit profit margins.
