Scoping analysis of leveraging IoT with blockchain for monitoring and ensuring efficacy of vaccine cold chains

The recent pandemic has brought an unprecedented tangible effect on the adversaries of understanding the importance of Vaccines. Prior to this situation there were scenarios where the drip in Vaccine efficacy has affected the public health sector and even the Government's. Vaccination is the on...
