Amazon is making a renewed push into the healthcare space with a $3.9 billion deal to buy the company behind One Medical. Purchasing the operator of primary care clinics across the country could strengthen the e-commerce giant’s footprint in the medical sector, but Amazon has stumbled in this space before.
WSJ reporter Sebastian Herrera joins host Zoe Thomas to discuss the deal and why Amazon is spending big to get further into healthcare.

Building wealth involves developing good habits like regularly putting money away in intervals for solid investments. Financial management is a crucial topic that most tend to shy away from, and ends up haunting them in the near future. Putting our time and effort in activities and investments that will yield a profitable return in the future is what we should be aiming for. Success depends on the actions or steps you take to achieve it. "You're not going to remember those expensive shoes you bought ten years ago, but you will remember every single morning when you look at your bank account that extra 0 in there. I promise, that's going to be way more fun to look at everyday", I pray that anyone who reads this will be successful in life

Out of the brightness of his presence clouds advanced, with hailstones and bolts of lightning.

Jeff Bezos gets to decide who lives and who dies. Only in America.
Good if it doing good for society jobs to work hard for a good peaceful life for generations not to run and hide over sea
Rockerfeller took over ALLOPATHIC medicine for profits. Bill Gates is the godfather of VACCINES for profits. It just makes sense that AMAZON would invest in healthcare for profits. To be clear: ALLOPATHIC medicine is an engine for economic prosperity. It has absolutely nothing to do with health.
This season has been really great, I've been making massive profits on my crypto investment all thanks to my Expert Frederick Joseph.

I guess I'm watching my next big investment. Healthcare in America is unfortunately big booming business for investors.
Look at so many negative reviews for One Medical on Yelp, I don’t have high hope for it getting any better after the Amazon buyout. It will be like the medical version of Amazon Home service, which was not a good experience. Even worse, medial will affect human life, it will have more serious consequences than buying fake product, or getting a lousy cleaning lady.
Single Payer Healthcare is better
Single payer healthcare system?
Left one medical because they seem to have a cray turnover with their doctors. I was with one medical for about 4 years and rarely was able to see the same doctor twice in a row. Not to mention the location of the office changed 3 times in 4 years. Sounds like the perfect Amazon fit, high economic efficiency with complete disregard for the well-being of employees and the quality of their service.
As a European I will point out that this acquisition should really not happen and be blocked.
