VeChain’s Impact in the COVID-19 Ravaged World
In the world ravaged by COVID-19, VeChain has not lagged behind in proving its viability when it comes to proffering a solution to a global problem using the technology at its disposal.
Since the breakout of the coronavirus pandemic in early 2020, the VeChain blockchain has been displaying its capability to make an impact. Vaccination against the highly contagious disease has started across the world and records need to be taken and stored securely.
Sometimes in early January 2021, it was announced that the first 100 COVID-19 vaccination records for medical personnel at the Mediterranean Hospital, Cyprus, were securely stored on VeChain public blockchain.
Back then, VeChain Foundation stated that the success and sure security of the stored records could attract more individuals and governments to leverage the quality and validity of solutions offered by the VeChain blockchain.
