The Country Coordinator of Zipline, Mr Daniel Marfo, says the use of aerial logistics such as drones is critical to meeting the healthcare needs of people in areas not easily accessible by road.
He said the use of aerial logistics in Africa was no longer a luxury but a necessity, hence the need for governments to invest more in that.
He said, for example, since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic in Ghana, two million routine vaccines and 500,000 medical products had been delivered via drones.
