Amazon is getting into the pharmacy business
Amazon (AMZN) just announced the acquisition of PillPack, an online pharmacy that offers pre-sorted doses of medications and home delivery.
The deal is expected to be closed during 2H 2018.
Terms of the deal are not disclosed.
CVS &MCK down 7% already. Any thought?
