Welcome To The Weekend Drone Delivery Could Give Africa’s HIV-positive Babies A Fighting Chance At Survival Quartz | 5 minutes A small white drone programmed to go back and forth between hospital labs and rural health clinics in Malawi could drastically cut down on the cost and waiting time of testing African children for HIV. The main goal of the pilot (pun intended) program, is seeing how the cost of using drones compares to traditional delivery methods. The current method requires fuel and drivers, while the drone’s main costs are electricity for charging its battery and the hardware.
