Project Fair Shot to offer free service for any
government agency, hospital, pharmacy, or organization facilitating
the distribution of COVID-19 vaccines
Cloudflare, Inc. (NYSE: NET), the security, performance, and
reliability company helping to build a better Internet, today
announced Project Fair Shot to offer a free and fair way for
vaccine distributors around the world to use digital queues to
safely scale their efforts. Project Fair Shot will enable any
government, municipality, hospital, pharmacy, or other organization
facilitating the distribution of the COVID-19 vaccine access to
Cloudflare Waiting Room, a transparent digital queue that sits in
front of any registration website for people to know where they
stand in line to sign up for a vaccine without leaving home. By
relying on Cloudflare’s global infrastructure, Project Fair Shot
can scale regardless of demand without requiring organizations to
dedicate limited IT resources to code changes.
“It's been incredible how quickly the scientific community came
together to develop multiple COVID-19 vaccines. At Cloudflare, we
wanted to lend our technical expertise and infrastructure to now
help ensure the vaccine is fairly and efficiently distributed,”
said Matthew Prince, co-founder and CEO of Cloudflare. “With
Project Fair Shot, we're providing our Waiting Room technology at
no cost to ensure that any organization charged with distributing
the vaccine can do so in a way that is equitable and without
requiring new technological investment.”
Cloudflare Waiting Rooms can be deployed in front of any
registration website without requiring engineering or coding. Each
person requesting a vaccine appointment will get confirmation that
they are in a queue. When their time is up, they will be directed
to the organization’s signup page. Waiting Rooms can be further
configured by each distributor to provide registrants with their
estimated wait time, and in the future, to send alerts as their
turn approaches. While Project Fair Shot makes this available at no
charge to vaccine distributors, Cloudflare Waiting Room also allows
organizations of all kinds with high demand for a resource — be it
concert tickets, new edition sneakers, or vaccines — to allow
individuals to queue and then fairly allocate access.
Vaccine distributors can sign up on the waitlist today at
