Summary

Twilio.org is providing $10 million in grants and product credits to support global vaccine distribution and administration, particularly for organizations helping underserved communities get vaccinated. A new Quick Deploy app allows public health agencies to launch a COVID-19 vaccine standby list quickly. Building cloud-based telephony systems with Twilio Studio and Serverless can help healthcare provider offices manage increased call volumes due to the vaccine rollout. Developers can also create automated appointment management systems using Twilio Programmable Voice and Messaging, as well as build HIPAA-compliant telemedicine solutions with Twilio Video.
