Blockchain is helping us to fight COVID-19

[MrSpasybo]

The Mediterranean Hospital of Cyprus, one of the country’s largest private health facilities, is storing its COVID-19 vaccination records on VeChain — offering another compelling use case for the supply chain logistics platform.

As of Monday, 100 doctors and personnel had received their first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine, the hospital said in a news release. The vaccinated personnel also received a digital certificate on their E-HCert App, an electronic wallet for lab results based on the VeChain Thor blockchain.

The digital certificates are “another step towards digital transformation of the healthcare industry via VeChainThor Blockchain,” the Mediterranean Hospital of Cyprus said.

I have read a member's comment regarding COVID-19 vaccine distribution by blockchain technology:

I am looking forward to supply chain changes, so that we can control the origin and quality of medical and technology products. The year 2020 has seen shipments of poor quality medical equipment, and medical equipment losses during transportation. So I am really wait for changing the supply chain to be ready to deliver good vaccines to everyone.

We're glad we have now taken the first steps in adopting blockchain technology in monitoring high-quality vaccine delivery as well as keeping records of people who have been vaccinated. This ensures that all will receive high-quality vaccines and that countries can more easily check the records of vaccinated people for better pandemic control.

Is your country ready to apply blockchain technology to the medical field like this? You think without blockchain, is there a reliable way to be able to guarantee the quality of vaccines and check people's injection status. I mean, vaccination certificates can be falsified.

I am sure that the use of this Blockchain can indeed be felt very effectively and efficiently. This technology allows for increased effectiveness, efficiency, transparency, speed, and also the accuracy of data delivery and data storage. In addition, this blockchain technology also makes data storage more secure and accessible to authorized parties more easily and quickly.

I am not sure about this. Some companies seem already adopted blockchain technology, but I don't know about the medical field. If blockchain technology can help much, I think it should be adopted or applied in my country. Even if it really depends on how our government views the advantages of blockchain technology.

Blockchain technology can be effective in this case. The importance of the chain should be given for the distribution of vaccines and data storage all over the world. One can be known as a popular medium all over the world. Poor health workers may be wary. However, I am still not sure about this. Interested to know the next updates.

Actually certification on the blockchain and vaccine certification system manually must be done, because this concerns the safety of many people, of course it will be safe if all data is stored on the blockchain and all systems are done digitally, but it is very risky. if one place only relies on 1 data. I mean, the hospital needs to make the data manually on paper so that it has two accurate data and the authenticity of the data can be accounted for.
In my country I haven't used such a system, but slowly I see the latest news, the tax system has started to be managed with blockchain technology

I agree with you. Thanks to blockchain, people's lives can become much easier. It is a shame that few people understand this and do not recognize crypto and blockchain.

In today's tough times associated with the coronavirus pandemic, investing and making money with cryptocurrencies is an excellent choice.

In my honest opinion, I don't think blockchain can be used in the medical aspect, I mean there's absolutely no need for that, I know crypto currency can help stop the wide spread of Corona virus since it can't be held with the bare hands unlike the traditional fiat, that's the only reason why the government in my country would consider crypto for payments, not for medical purposes blockchain is useless there.

In my opinion, blockchain will still be able to fake vaccines. Because irresponsible people always have ways. That's why I myself am still very doubtful about getting this vaccine.

Sure it can help and be used. Applications are, for example, in the area of ​​patient files, an organ donation register, the recall of counterfeit drugs and medical research projects.

Thwart counterfeit drugs, prevention of fraud in prescription accounting, safety in the control of medical devices, quality assurance in the hospital.

Blockchain is not only cryptocurrency, you know 

[Arendra]

I haven't felt blockchain helped in handling Covid 19. Because until now, the handling of Covid is still very slow in my country. Moreover, the problem of this vaccine is actually feared by many people because they doubt the authenticity of the vaccine.

[shiming]

The good news, indeed, the blockchain does play a very important role in distinguishing authenticity, and the epidemic is very serious now. It is very important to distinguish the authenticity of the vaccine.

Obviously this is not only renewable news and people have started to believe how blockchain works well, but if it is used because of recognition that cannot be underestimated, of course this will make many countries apply because of the ease of blockchain, of course. I hope that the benefits and ease of checking that occur can make the success of mass vaccination for every country that uses,

[Bony11]

I really think it would be much better if it was linked to blockchain.  I think Blockchain's activities are very important to manage this epidemic.  However, I do not have a good idea about the rules of use of blockchain in medicine.  Hopefully this epidemic will be much easier to manage if it is linked to blockchain.

[Cryptoz]

Yeah, if blockchain can be used to ease the process, the data, and also the effectiveness, why not? Today is the digital era, the high technology era, so whatever can ease our works, it can be utilized. Moreover about blockchain, this is a new way of offering very easy effectivity, efficiency, and also transparency
