Amazon has spent heavily on testing facilities at its logistics sites and, by last October, said almost 20,000 of its US frontline workers had tested positive for Covid-19.
It is not just Amazon’s online retail business that has seen huge demand over the past year, and the company’s cloud business, advertising division and online streaming platform have also boomed.
Amazon has seen its share price almost double since the pandemic hit many Western countries in March and is now worth $1.65 trillion.
Jeff Bezos, Amazon’s boss, is worth around $188bn, just behind Elon Musk at $190bn.
