Drones offer medical delivery hope
The low-altitude economy Regulatory Sandbox pilot projects have been rolled out progressively. One fine example involves the collaboration between a logistics company and the Hospital Authority to deliver medical supplies from Cyberport to St John Hospital in Cheung Chau by drone, thereby shortening the travel time drastically compared to existing transportation methods.
The Secretary for Transport and Logistics, Ms Mable Chan, inspected the pilot project to learn about the latest developments in using drones for medical delivery. Meanwhile, News.gov.hk spoke with the representatives from St John Hospital and the logistics company to learn more about the vast benefits of the project.
