The UK Space Agency on Saturday said they are backing a health care start-up in setting up a drone delivery system for the National Health Service (NHS).

The delivery project, called project dreadnought, is “a network of secure air corridors” allowing GPS navigated drones to deliver vital supplies such as “COVID-19 samples, test-kits, and PPE,” the government said in a statement.
