Abstract
The sudden explosion of the COVID-19 pandemic shows the limitations of the existing healthcare system in handling health emergencies. Innovative technologies like blockchain can play an important role in effective planning operations for fighting coronavirus pandemic. Blockchain can provide solutions that ensure safe and reliable medical supply chain with a secure data management health system. In this paper, we present an extensive review on the use of blockchain technology to mitigate COVID-19 pandemic. The research papers are classified into two groups: proposer work with implementations and surveyed papers. Both are analyzed and summarized. Then, we discussed the importance of applying blockchain technology for the COVID-19 pandemic. Finally, the challenging and future research directions are identified to motivate researchers for more efforts in this domain.
