In a bid to reduce Nigeria’s child mortality rate caused by limited access to oxygen, AirBank allows hospitals and patients to call LifeBank at any time of the day to request emergency medical oxygen, and have it delivered in less than 50 minutes. Other medical products like vaccines and rare drugs will also soon be available via LifeBank, which was incubated at Co-Creation Hub (CcHub) in 2016, has raised a funding round led by EchoVC Partners, and took part in Merck’s Lagos-based satellite accelerator and the MIT Solver Class this year.AirBank by @LifeBankNigeria is LIVE! I am so thrilled guys. We worked so hard to figure out how to help our most vulnerable citizens, children under the age of 5! Now access to Oxygen is just one phone call away 24 hours and 7 days a week! Let’s go! https://t.co/SDL08KJ4zu pic.twitter.com/sKxIhCYkP5
