Zipline Is Using Drones For COVID-19 Supplies Delivery

Rural health centers and hospitals are receiving crucial COVID-19 supplies in some bizarre manners by different companies, organizations, and people. In the US, a young teen is flying is his own plane between hospitals and in Africa we are seeing the tech company Zipline delivering supplies using autonomous drones to rural health centers in Ghana and Rwanda.

Zipline has modified its drones to carry the required supplies over hundreds of kilometers in only minutes to and from the hospitals. By flying the supplies from point A to point B, Zipline is managing to save a lot of time while greatly reducing the direct human interaction that would have been required otherwise.

Zipline began its operations in 2016 and was delivering blood to 21 hospitals in Rwanda. As of now, it is supplying more than 160 different kinds of medical supplies and has contracts in place with over 2,500 hospitals and health facilities in Rwanda and Ghana. Zipline has been successful in keeping up with the delivery of crucial medical supplies to the hospitals without suffering any hurdles.

Doctors have to input their requests and orders by making use of Zipline’s app. They are then able to monitor the shipments using the same app. The flight of each drone is completely autonomous and can be monitored from the distribution center. The drones are able to take flight within seven minutes of receiving an order and can make the delivery in 15-30 minutes.

Zipline’s CEO Keller Renaudo said, ‘We’ve actually been able to see a spike in certain hospitals instantaneously where outbreaks are occurring. So having a responsible logistics system doesn’t just mean you can respond to an outbreak faster. It also means you can actually spot an outbreak faster. We operate in crazy weather every single day. So we fly through the insane wind, insane rain, insane dust storms in order to reach a patient whose life is depending on us.’

Reno Omokri claims these monumental structures in Western countries are "dedicated to satan" then shares biblical passages to back his claim

Reno Omokri shared photos of some structures built in Western countries and alleged that they are dedicated to satan. He then shared biblical passages to back his claim. He shared photos of structures in London, Rome, Washington D.C. and New York and said they are the "Asherah Pole, a pagan idol" which "God detests and warns believers to avoid". He wrotes: 1 Kings 16:33, 2 Kings 23:6, Deuteronomy 16:21, Exodus 34:13 and many other verses of Scripture instruct us that an Asherah Pole is a pagan idol God detests and warns believers to avoid. But what is an Asherah Pole? Google it and check the images that describe it. An Asherah Pole is simply a phallic pole dedicated to satan. Almost all major cities in the West have an Asherah Pole hidden in plain sight!? #TableShaker kk
