Blockchain-based Covid Vaccination Registration and Monitoring

Covid-19 (SARS-CoV-2) has changed almost all the aspects of our living. Governments around the world have imposed lockdown to slow down the transmissions. In the meantime, researchers worked hard to find the vaccine. Fortunately, we have found the vaccine, in fact a good number of them. However, managing the testing and vaccination process of the total population is a mammoth job. There are multiple government and private sector organisations that are working together to ensure proper testing and vaccination. However, there is always delay or data silo problems in multi-organisational works. Therefore, streamlining this process is vital to improve the efficiency and save more lives. It is already proved that technology has a significant impact on the health sector, including blockchain. Blockchain provides a distributed system along with greater privacy, transparency and authenticity. In this article, we have presented a blockchain-based system that seamlessly integrates testing and vaccination system, allowing the system to be transparent. The instant verification of any tamper-proof result and a transparent and efficient vaccination system have been exhibited and implemented in the research. We have also implemented the system as "Digital Vaccine Passport" (DVP) and analysed its performance.
