Drone successfully delivers vaccines for first time

The children's charity UNICEF has used a drone to reach a remote village in the South Pacific island of Vanuatu. The small flying machine made the journey in minutes, instead of the usual several hours by hand delivery. Sheldon Yett, the UNICEF Pacific Representative in Fiji, tells us more about the vaccine delivery.
