Blockchain application helps track Covid-19 cases in Latin America

Today, primexbt news brings you information: Blockchain application to help track Covid-19 cases in Latin America


A company based in Canada uses Blockchain to combat Covid-19 in Latin America


Emerge, a startup in Toronto, Canada, has just launched a community safety system application called Civitas, with the hope of supporting regulatory agencies in many countries. According to the company's introduction, the goal of the application is:




Make communities safer and reduce wait times in stores by limiting gatherings in tight spaces and reducing the potential for infection.


This software can link the ID number to unique data on the Blockchain, so that the authorities can determine if this person is allowed to leave the house or not. If a citizen reports symptoms of Covid-19, the app will determine when they should go out to buy essentials like food and medicine.

Since mid-March, Honduras has locked down nearly a third of the country's population, or nearly 3 million, including part of the population of the capital, Tegucigalpa. Those who act against isolation in the above areas, for example going out on the street without a valid reason, may be fined or severely punished.

Medical teams in Honduras can also use Civitas to monitor symptoms and take notes during treatment. To protect privacy, only users and healthcare providers have access to the above data.



Countries applying Blockchain technology to fight Covid-19


While some countries use the most advanced technologies to track down the Covid-19 virus, Blockchain is also being applied by some countries around the world to fight the pandemic.


The Ministry of Community Development (Ministry of Community Development) of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) decided to use digital identity through a system on Blockchain and online chat system to authenticate certificates and other documents online. Thus, employees can follow the policy of staying at home and still be able to work remotely.


In the Netherlands, distributed ledger technology company Tymlez proposed that the government use the company's blockchain platform to simulate the supply chain of medicines. Distributed ledger technology helps data to be shared and stored synchronously, preventing crooks from taking advantage of opportunities to raise prices.
