Drone technology: Kenya needs to adopt it as health infrastructure - Business Daily

Kisumu County in Kenya has implemented drone delivery to improve the management of medical supplies, including vaccines, blood, and other critical commodities. Since 2023, 3,347 deliveries have been made, enabling quick response to demand and reducing losses from expired or misplaced stock. The technology aims to strengthen the health supply chain, especially for treating animal bites or obstetric emergencies, by ensuring immediate availability of essential products. Kisumu's health official advocates for integrating drones as essential infrastructure rather than a pilot project or donor initiative.
