PERTH-BASED pharmacy delivery app, Packapill, is waiving fees to get prescription and over-the-counter medicines to patients in lockdown-affected parts of Western Australia.
In a statement released this morning, the contactless medicine delivery service said it was turning off all delivery charges in the app, regardless of location or order size to meet the needs of patients in WA, in the wake of the State Government's decision to impose COVID-19 restrictions yesterday.
"Packapill is immediately turning off all delivery charges to help West Aussies stay home and stay safe during these unprecedented times." a company spokesperson said.
"We know many people struggle to get to the pharmacy or the doctor when lockdowns are in place, and there is a fear of contagion in all medical facilities.
"We are doing what we can to help, so that our risks as a state are reduced."
Packapill provides contactless medication delivery within three hours.
