With a tie-up with over 5000 local pharmacies in Mumbai to enable residents of the vicinity to get access to medicines, health essentials while staying quarantined safely in their homes
Medicalwale.com launched several initiatives to help people get through the tough lockdown times that India faces today due to the Coronavirus pandemic. Medicalwale.com has tied-up with over 5000 local pharmacies in Mumbai to enable residents of the vicinity to get access to medicines and health essentials while staying quarantined safely in their homes. Users can now easily order medicines, OTC products and daily essential products as the platform works tirelessly round the clock with pharmacy stores, distributors and manufacturers.
As the country grapples to get access to medicines during the day, Medicawale.com also launched a service called ‘Night Owls’ which delivers medicines at the doorstep even after dusk. “Access to medicines 24 hours is a basic right of all the citizens, as a medical emergency can never be pre-determined. With our Night Owls service, we will now be able to deliver medicines at the doorstep of users at ease at any hour during the night as well”, said Obaid Abdul Aziz, Founder, Medicalwale.com.
With the growing risk of Coronavirus and the availability of limited labs for authorised COVID19 tests the difficulty for the users increases. Thus the government has authorised a few private labs to conduct COVID19 tests. Medicalwale is helping its users by providing test facilities where symptoms are very evident in patients. “With the outbreak of this pandemic, a horde of people are worried about their health and mistaking other symptoms as a sign of Coronavirus. To help them get professional consultation from our panel of qualified doctors, patients can now connect over a video call or chat with our onboard doctors to get free advice instantly. Based on the World Health Organisation (WHO), Medicalwale has created an AI autobot where users can quickly pre-diagnose themselves whether they should get more help from a doctor or get themselves tested. This is free in public interest for all the people – whether Medicalwale user or not,” added Aziz.
