- No person should suffer for lack of timely medicine. No matter how high or far they live. - Dharchula is one of the many hard-to-reach towns in my home state (Uttarakhand). One must travel over 20 hours by road from the closest airport (Dehradun). To reach the many villages near Dharchula, one has to walk sometimes for several more hours, sometimes on foot. Come monsoons or winters, these hard-to-reach places become completely unreachable. - Consider the implications of this on healthcare. How does a patient get a life-saving medicine in time, if they get it at all? - Of the 30,000 government-run primary healthcare centres serving India's 1.4 billion people, 5-10% can be nearly inaccessible due to their geographic locations or vulnerability to natural disasters. (WEF). What, then, is the solution? - Drones! Drones are the simplest, most practical and now legally correct answer. Redwing is one of the 250+ drone startups in India that designs and operates autonomous drone logistics systems to automate last-mile healthcare supply chains. - Redwing has tested its drone-based healthcare delivery in Arunachal Pradesh, one of India's most complex and far-flung terrains, where it has executed over 650 drone flights across a challenging 15,000km ground distance. Redwing drones can carry a payload of up to 1-3 kg and travel a distance of 30 km in 30 minutes however, the payload and range will naturally increase with advancements. - Drones in healthcare have very interesting use cases. In an example from rural Meghalaya, after delivering medicines the drones don’t return empty-handed but bring patients’ blood samples for testing. The results are sent back via WhatsApp in under 3 hours. Now, how about that! - Here’s a super cool documentary that shows the drone service in action, run by a start-up called Zipline based in Rwanda. https://lnkd.in/dJ5tBhWm #healthtech #dronesforgood
