The COVID-19 pandemic has brought the world to a near standstill this year, but it has also succeeded in boosting the freight and logistics industries further. As pharmaceutical companies work on developing COVID-19 vaccines, shipping them as soon as possible has become a priority for the shipping industry. On the one hand, the air-freight industry has struggled to perfect supply chains; On the other hand, many drone operators are seizing the opportunity to help the global industry recovery with the help of medical professionals.

The growing demand for medical supplies around the world has, to some extent, accelerated the reshaping of the future of the drone industry. So, what role does drone logistics play in the epidemic prevention and control period? How will the industry use drones to transport goods over long distances?

Novant Health, an American healthcare company that is part of the local healthcare system, has long anticipated the importance of the logistics system and has been actively contacting government authorities to plan future developments. The company, which has more than 700 clinics and 30,000 team members, is working hard to figure out how drones can be used as a regular delivery tool to deliver health care to people more quickly.

Angela Yorkham, executive vice President of Novant Health, says the company is focused on two big things. First, improve the quality of care. What they can do is make diagnoses faster and provide personalized treatment better. The second is to broaden the access of patients to care, which is related to the quality of care of the whole community. While Novant Health provides Health care through its offline clinics, they also offer telemedicine through online channels, supplemented by advanced sensors.

As demand for clinical medical supplies continues to grow, the traditional delivery methods in the logistics supply chain, such as trucks, cars and trucks, are proving to be more difficult than they need to be, Mr. Yorkham said. Especially in the Southeastern United States, because of the construction of hospitals and other medical facilities along the coast, in the event of natural disasters such as storms and extreme weather, it is difficult to use traditional delivery methods. In addition, storage capacity can be a problem in a traditional transportation environment. It needs to be addressed through forward-looking planning, but this approach does not work during this particular period of the COVID-19 pandemic.
