“…Similar to the Belgium application, Coronalert, the German application was intended to disturb the infection chains using Bluetooth to notify users if they came less than 1.5 m from each other for a period of 10 minutes or more. In addition, it allowed users to know if they were in contact with an infected individual in the past 14 days, providing the estimated time and distance of exposure [10].…”

BackgroundContact tracing applications were introduced during the COVID-19 pandemic to mitigate the spread of the infection in several countries. In Saudi Arabia, the Tawakkalna application was developed. The Tawakkalna application is a mobile health solution aimed to track infection cases, save lives, and reduce the burden on health facilities. This study aims to explore the public's attitude to and acceptance levels of the Tawakkalna application and to evaluate its effectiveness regarding privacy and security. The main objective of this study is to investigate the user acceptability of contact tracing applications and explore the safety and privacy effectiveness of the COVID-19 contact tracing application, the Tawakkalna application. In addition, the study analyzes factors associated with acceptance levels and compares the results obtained to similar studies in other countries using similar applications. MethodologyThis study used a valid and reliable online survey that was used in similar studies conducted in other countries to assess the acceptability of the application. The survey was conducted from September to November 2021, and the final dataset included 205 participants. To investigate the privacy and security performance of the Tawakkalna application, we followed the investigation method used by similar research that investigated 28 contact tracing applications across Europe. ResultsOut of the 205 participants, 84.87% were in favor of the opt-in voluntary installation of the Tawakkalna application, and 49.75% of the participants were in favor of the opt-out automatic installation. Individuals' trust in the government had a huge impact on acceptance, with 60.98% of the participants supporting the application because they believed that the Tawakkalna application would help them stay healthy during the COVID-19 pandemic. Overall, 49% of the participants supporting the application also agreed to the deidentification of their collected data and providing it for research. The Tawakkalna application ranked at the top compared to other contact tracing applications regarding privacy and security. ConclusionsThe Tawakkalna application developed by the Saudi Data and Artificial Intelligence Authority was a response to the COVID-19 pandemic, which is considered the biggest public health crisis in recent times. The Saudi Arabian government gained the population's acceptance through effective endorsement and the spread of educational content through media channels. By complying with privacy policies, the Tawakkalna application is an effective tool to combat public health infectious diseases.

Currently COVID-19 pandemic is the major cause of disease burden globally. So, there is a need for an urgent solution to fight against this pandemic. Internet of Things (IoT) has the ability of data transmission without human interaction. This technology enables devices to connect in the hospitals and other planned locations to combat this situation. This paper provides a road-map by highlighting the IoT applications that can help to control it. This study also proposes a real time identification and monitoring of COVID-19 patients. Proposed framework consists of four components using cloud architecture: data collection of disease symptoms (using IoT based devices), health center or quarantine center (data collected using IoT devices), data warehouse (analysis using Machine Learning models) and health professionals (provide treatment). To predict the severity level of COVID-19 patients on the basis of IoT based real time data, we experimented with five machine learning models. Results reveal that Random Forest outperformed among all other models. IoT applications will help management, health professionals and patients to investigate the symptoms of contagious disease and manage COVID-19 +ve patients worldwide.

“…This in turn, results in significant negative socio-economic impacts with political disruption and ramifications [40]- [42]. Evidence suggests that the likelihood of repeat pandemic has increased in the past century [14], [43], [44]. These have been attributed to the increased (im)migration [45], global integration [46], urbanization [47], technological advances [48]- [50], land-use changes [51]- [53], and exploitation of natural environment vis-à-vis its resources [54]- [56].…”

As competitive market and globalization continue to ripple a range of issues across the asset chain (i.e. safety, quality, tracing, and overall management efficiency). Pandemics are bound to occur without warning and has revealed the unpreparedness of many nations. Thus, the Nigerian Government aiming to shore up revenue/monetization via customs exercise duties to augment the nosedive in revenue of the oil sector – must formulate policies and adapt technology to harness its inherent benefits therein. Study advances a sensor-based blockchain NiCuSBlockIoT, which will provision a decision-support scheme for cargo goods traceability and asset movement on a value-chain by first ensuring that accurate records of cargo goods are registered, tagged and reported using the sensor-based units. These are then broadcasted on to the NiCuSBlockIoT as record and/or blocks via a P2P chain on the network as a decentralized framework executed on a distributed hyper-ledger fabric via smart-contract transaction logic. Result show model eliminate fraud that often accompanies a centralized scheme via its sensor-layered model that reports all such errors as data on NiCuSBlockIoT supply value chain.
