Governments and healthcare workers are on an incessant strive to isolate and curb the community spread of the virus.

Document: Diseases like COVID-19, SARS-CoV2 and Ebola have led to loss of lives, economic breakdown and mass hysteria. Governments and healthcare workers are on an incessant strive to isolate and curb the community spread of the virus. Several countries have employed mobile-based applications for tracing contacts, distributing COVID protection guidelines, helping people self-diagnose and forming infection patterns and control groups. These existing strategies, however, do not provide end-to-end privacy in the collection and handling of critical patient data. Moreover, they are vulnerable to linkage attacks. In this paper, we introduce a privacy-preserving COVID-19 protection strategy resting on a decentralized, blockchain-based framework, that aids in contact tracing and social distancing. Our simulation validates that our proposed system maintains the confidentiality of the user. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.
