Health care:

Drones can be used to transport medicines like blood products, vaccines, and other supplies like drugs and medical samples. Medical supplies have become one of the premier uses for drone delivery because they can more easily fly to remote or otherwise inaccessible regions compared to trucks or motorcycles. Medical drone delivery is credited with saving lives in emergency blood shipments in Rwanda and in relief after hurricanes in Puerto Rico. During the COVID-19 pandemic, drones began medical supplies of personal protective equipment and COVID-19 tests in the United States.

The commercial operation of supplying medical drones has been running since 2016 when Zipline was the first sustainable commercial drone operation. By October 2020, Zipline has made more than 70,000 medical deliveries by drone.

Grocery delivery service:

Drones have been suggested as a solution for the quick delivery of prepared foods like pizza, tacos, and frozen beverages.

Early prototypes of drones for food delivery include Star Simpson's tacocopter demonstration, a taco delivery concept that used a smartphone app to order drone-delivered tacos in the San Francisco area. The discovery that it didn't exist as a delivery system or app led to it being labeled a hoax. A similar concept called the "burrito bomber" was tested in 2012.
