Red-zoning for real estate (as evidenced in both Baltimore and DC) are drastically different than avoiding warzones for delivery.

Also, only USPS can be made to deliver to warzones, and many commercial shippers (DHS, FedEx, UPS) use that route.

Same for Amazon Prime, Ebay, and Walmart delivery to use USPS for “certain address”.

Also there is a different “warzone” within DC (not covered by the article) where Feds preclear the packages of any hazardous materials.

Meanwhile, Amazon should fess up and not provide Prime memberships to those zipcodes.
