Mexican company introduces blockchain-operated Covid 19 test certificates
The Covid 19 crisis panic seems to dissolve after almost two years; However, governments all over the world are still looking for instruments to control their expansion and enable their citizens to return to normal life.
A Mexican company uses blockchain technology to improve the reliability of COVID-19 diagnostic tests by using cryptography and real-time-over testability of the blockchain to prevent counterfeiting and fraud.
fight against Covid-19 with decentralized technology
According to a report by the Hispanische Nachrichtenagentur IPROUP, the medical service company MDS has introduced a quick test application and interpretation service as well as a PCR sampling at home, which are specially tailored to COVID-19. The results are physically and digitally delivered 24 hours later and certified with blockchain technology to ensure the implementation of the test and the authenticity of the results in real time.
As explained on his website, MDS creates a clear hash that is linked to the results of each test, and generates a QR code that with a digital certificate with personal information with the person who has carried out the test, the results received and the doctor responsible for the administration of the test is tested and the date on which the test was carried out.
In order to avoid the falsification of negative results, we have started to certify the SARS-COV-2 recognition tests with blockchain technology and cryptographic signature that protects the information in a unique, unchangeable and unchangeable QR code that can be verified worldwide.
Mexico: Pro Blockchain, Anti-Bitcoin
Mexico is one of the Latin American countries in which the application of blockchain technology has known applications that go beyond money.
As an example, the local congress of Quintana Roo in Cancun, Mexico, experimented with the Implementation of the Lawine Blockchain Digitization of the records of local public administration. The project was successfully implemented in March and cost 600,000 Mexican pesos ($ 290,000).
But the congress decided the week
also the National Chamber of Commerce (Canaco) by Querétaro, Mexico, had already announced The availability of a digital vaccination pass that was issued in cooperation with the blockchain company Xertify and would enable the locals to digitize their physical certificates issued by the authorities after a payment of around 400 pesos. In the financing, the use of cryptocurrencies - especially Bitcoin - does not enjoy the same support from the authorities. The central bank of the country has already stopped from the president of the banco azteca, To offer Bitcoin compatibility, and for 12 Cryptocurrency exchanges for the connection to criminal cartels. Last week, the country's president even excluded Bitcoin as a legal means of payment. At least for the time being, the financial revolution and the blockchain revolution in Mexico will go two very distant ways. .
