Zipline

Seven-month-old Samara’s malaria vaccine dropped from the sky—and changed his life. 🌍✨ In places once held back by distance, delays, and stockouts, vaccines now arrive reliably, thanks to a partnership between Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance, Nigerian state governments, and Zipline. This is what innovation for impact looks like. Read Samara’s story. 👇 📖  https://lnkd.in/eReM28C9

Homa Bay County has made a complete turnaround—from not procuring essential health commodities due to unreliable logistics, to actively investing again. Why? Because they trust Zipline. Our partnership began with rethinking HIV prevention and treatment for young people outside traditional settings. Together with the Elton John AIDS Foundation, we pioneered a community-based HIV services model that reached ~34,000 young people with health education and connected ~16,000 to counseling and testing. The insight was clear: bringing healthcare closer to people boosts access, increases healthy behaviors, and improves lives. Building on this success, now we’re  storing and delivering vaccines, blood products, anti-venom, insulin, maternal health drugs and other commodities for Homa Bay County—transforming health access for residents, reducing wastage, and restoring trust.

🚨 Hot off the press from Rwanda! 🚨 Nearly a year ago, we teamed up with Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance, the UPS Foundation, and the Government of Rwanda to deliver vaccines more equitably and affordably to rural health posts. Now, the early results are in: 📊 Data from 67 facilities serving ~427,000 people shows that thanks to this new model, 7,200 kids are being vaccinated every month at these sites. 💥 And most astoundingly — missed vaccination opportunities dropped by 88%! That means far fewer children turned away, referred, or rescheduled because vaccines weren’t available. This Immunization Week, we celebrate what the data can't deny: #Immunization for All is Humanly Possible. 🌍💉

Proud to team up with The Pfizer Foundation to help close the vaccine equity gap. Through our partnership, Zipline has delivered millions of vaccines—and in 2024 alone, helped vaccinate an estimated 500,000+ children in Nigeria. This is how we make #ImmunizationForAll possible. 🌍💉

In parts of Rwanda, malaria cases have surged 50% in just one year, and climate change is exacerbating this, contributing to longer mosquito seasons and harder-to-predict outbreaks. An initiative by the Rwanda Biomedical Centre to centralize malaria meds and deliver them on-demand with Zipline is changing this story. 🌍 This #WorldMalariaDay, we’re showing how proven technology and country leadership come together to build climate-resilient health systems––saving lives, reducing costs and waste, and making every dollar go further. 👉 Read the full story: https://lnkd.in/dYMnKbN2

🚨 We’re featured in the Friends of the Global Fight Against AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria’s latest innovation report, spotlighting bold approaches to ending epidemics. 📍Find us on page 12 — which highlights that our community-based HIV model with Elton John AIDS Foundation in Kenya reaches 27x more high-risk youth than traditional approaches. This is what's possible when The Global Fund empowers countries to innovate. 📖 Read the full report here 👉https://lnkd.in/dYMYTM2p

This Earth Day, we’re connecting the dots between climate and health. Most people don’t realize climate change is making diseases like malaria worse. Warmer temps. More rain. That’s all it takes for mosquitoes to spread farther, stick around longer, and put more people at risk—especially in places where health care is already hard to reach. That’s where Zipline comes in. We deliver malaria meds and vaccines by electric drone in minutes—with 97% fewer emissions. So we’re not just helping governments respond to climate-fueled health threats—we’re actively cutting the emissions driving climate change in the first place.

In just a few years, Zipline's delivered over 22 million vaccine doses—faster, safer, and more reliably. Why does this matter? Because one of the main reasons children miss getting vaccinated isn’t hesitation—it’s simply not having access. Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance prioritizes making supply available exactly when it's needed to move the needle on childhood immunization. This is why we're 100% behind Gavi’s 2026-2030 replenishment vision: 📍 500 million kids reached 💉 8–9 million lives saved 💰 $100 billion in economic impact 🌍 All in just five years.
