The drone delivery revolution seems to be slower to take off than anticipated. One sector that has been making great use of drones is the medical industry. Perfect for shorter quick trips of medicines, blood samples and equipment. Hospitals in Northumberland England have joined the ranks with a fleet of drones. More from BBC:
The uncrewed aerial vehicles (UAVs) can carry up to 3kg of medical supplies from Wansbeck General Hospital in Ashington up to Alnwick Infirmary and on to Berwick Infirmary.
Chemotherapy medication will be ferried to Alnwick and then on to Berwick Infirmary while return flights from Alnwick and Berwick will deliver pathology samples to Wansbeck.
A trained pilot will monitor the flight of the drone along the route.
