for fighting COVID-19 pandemic along with its benefits
Unlike traditional database systems, blockchain technology utilizes its
inherent properties to ensure transparency, immutability and accuracy
during data collection and data management transactions. Moreover,
blockchain enables two or more parties to interact easily with one
another in a digital environment and permits them to exchange money in
the absence of a central authority. In many aspects, blockchain is
transforming many industries by enabling value exchange, openness and
trust across business ecosystems. It’s used in many industries such as
energy, law, tourism, supply chain, banking and healthcare. In
particular, it has proved to be beneficial in the healthcare sector as
it promises to enhance healthcare data privacy and secure data
management. As a result, it is immensely suitable for tackling
coronavirus-related healthcare problems.
