COVID-19 (Corona Virus Disease 2019) is a pandemic, which has been spreading exponentially around the globe. Many countries adopted stay-at-home or lockdown policies to control its spreading. However, prolonged stay-at-home may cause worse effects like economical crises, unemployment, food scarcity, and mental health problems of individuals. This article presents a smart consumer electronics solution to facilitate safe and gradual opening after stay-at-home restrictions are lifted. An Internet of Medical Things enabled wearable called EasyBand is introduced to limit the growth of new positive cases by autocontact tracing and by encouraging essential social distancing.
