Scientists around the world are trying to figure out a cure. For the love of humanity, I wish they find it too soon. I have to admit the real heroes are the one who helps the public to fight against the virus. Nurses, doctors, health workers, and volunteers- hats off to them.
Technology is also playing its part to heal the disease.
The world is struggling against the pandemic caused by COVID-19 (Coronavirus Disease 2019) and with no approved vaccine yet developed, several technological progressions are being used to strongly equip and battle against the coronavirus. Whether it is the screening of affected individuals or helping in managing the inundated hospitals the adoption of technology has become a pivotal factor.
Now IoT service has been a buzzing topic in the tech industry with more and more companies trying to capitalize on its full potential and comprehensive applications. In the fight against COVID –19 IoT has been acting as a major tool in helping to limit the spread of the virus.
Simply, IoT is equating all kinds of physical objects to the internet so as to make them “smart”. These physical objects can be a lightbulb, a refrigerator, or even the smart cities which only exist because of IoT. More specifically, IoT refers to any system of physical devices that receive and transfer data over wireless networks without human intervention.
