Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “Dr. Amazon will see you now”.
I I want to talk about Amazon’s Telehealth expansion, Amazon bought American healthcare provider, one medical which offers subscribers 24 7 On Demand, Telehealth services and same and next day, in-person medical appointments at one of its 125 offices. The deal was announced last year, but was delayed by an FTC antitrust investigation. Amazon is looking to expand one medical to compete in U.S, Primary Care against other Outpatient, Clinic chains owned by CVS, Walgreens and Walmart. This has raised concerns about vertical consolidation, as large corporations increasingly buy up. Smaller players in the market.
Amazon already offers medication through its online pharmacy, and the acquisition will give Amazon access to even more medical data which it uses for analytics and machine learning both on patient Health outcomes and staff. Well-Being, there’s definitely no issue with the people that sell you, food and everything else that you buy in your life, also having all of your medical data cool sweet. I think if people watch the show for a while, they know that I’m probably not so into this but yeah. I for one, think it’s great. I don’t believe that at all yeah, I don’t know. I don’t like that. Yeah um, I wonder what’s interesting, is if you are currently a customer of one Medical and you don’t want your medical data being taken by Amazon. I wonder what rights you have because it’s like, I don’t think you can gdpr it, because it’s an American American yeah yeah I get so basically is it just all going Amazon.
There might be a way to deal with it. I mean I I don’t know. I don’t know something to consider if you are a one medical customer, I’m willing to bet there was something in their T’s and C’s. That’S like yeah, we’ll keep everything super private and we won’t share it with anybody by the way we might get acquired.
At some point, haha yeah um – I mean that’s it’s usually in there yeah. I don’t know it’s kind of depressing the like what industry are they gon na not be in? In 20 years I mean Wall E is looking more and more prophetic by the time. What was the time by the day uh, I don’t remember what the super company was in that one by and large, by and large or by n large, or something like that yeah. So I think they were basing it off of like it was Amazon Plus Costco or something as far as I could tell it’s like.
Basically, they were just involved in everything from merchandise sales to space travel, okay, it’s Amazon, yeah! I mean at a certain point you I have so much money that you can just buy your way into literally any industry. We are now a market leader yesterday, we did not exist, we just bought. We we just bought the the human, the the actual physical assets and the the like, the human like knowledge, Capital. The entire, like essence of this entire industry, now belongs to us Lull by the way the prices are double now hope you like that, because we I mean we spend a lot on this and we are think of the shareholders. We’Ve talked about this before it like when, when Best Buy came up into Canada, it wasn’t like Best Buy and Future Shop fought for a while.
Future Shop was uh, basically exactly the same as Best Buy in Canada, but like worse, because the sales people were commissioned and really pushy yeah yep, so that and their color was red instead of blue other than that it was like it was yellow Best Buy. No future shop yeah, I just know Best, Buy, yellow. That’S why it’s blue shut up yeah hold on pull pull Best Buy is blue.
No, that’s it don’t go on the website. All right pull! No! No! I don’t know how to create it. Yeah. You always show it to me, and then I always forget it’s so straightforward Best Buy is what primary color um yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah. Okay, in the meantime uh. What were we talking about? Yellow can’t, remember? We were talking about the by and large yeah I man, so Amazon’s they’ve got ring so they’ve got cameras all over your house. They’Re gon na have your medical data, so they’re gon na know like don’t.
They have that little robot with the camera on it too body yeah a little like drone thing and stuff like uh. They know all the products you buy, they’re the primary employer in more than one. You know significant municipality. Not only can they deliver your food, but they also have uh. What’S that, oh man, big food chain, oh Whole Foods, they also own Whole Foods, uh yeah.
I think terrifying, it’s blue, bro yellow’s going up. I think you guys are just trolling me. No, it’s blue, yes, yellow is the accent color, but it’s blue. When you walk in there, what are they wearing when you, when you go up to the store? What color is the Best Buy logo on boom got em roasted the background’s blue shut up, it’s yellow, isn’t it the tag? The tag is yellow right, I’m pretty sure the tag is blue.
Oh that tag is yellow yeah yeah wait, but no Luke screen Luke screen. What color, what color is that? No there? No there that’s what I’m talking about. Look it’s the background is blue. I think I think the I think this is old. What color was the favicon? What color does Best Buy think their color is go back, go back! No, you go back. You have to go back, favicon, yellow bestbuy.com, they’re wearing blue shirts, they’re, all wearing blue shirts.
That doesn’t mean their color is blue. Their color is still yellow and look the the banner this. Oh, that’s: a Windows, no we’re not looking at your screen anymore. Okay, we’ve had enough of your screen. The uniform is blue and yeah. The yellow logo is old, the entire building is blue. I don’t know guys, I don’t know.
