Blockchain technology and its powerful capabilities can be used to speed up verifications without compromising the accuracy, security and integrity of data.
Recently, the Chinese government adopted a blockchain-based platform that checks health records with the aim of resuming cross-border tourism to the tourist city of Macau.
The blockchain-based platform makes it easy and fast for tourists from mainland China to verify their health status upon entering the city of "Macau", where in just 3 seconds, a tourist's health record can be verified.
Although the platform is only in use for one month, it has processed the health data of 17 million people.
The platform serves as an electronic corridor for residents to access public places.
After a few months, Macau expanded the use of the platform to add an inter-identification mechanism with the health system and platform in Guangdong Province, China.
The health code for the platform is based on the open source “FISCO BCOS” blockchain in China.
In a press release, the non-profit organization revealed the platform's impact, including the revival of tourism between mainland China and Macau.
The city of "Macau" had suspended the tourist visa application in January this year in light of the spread of the Corona virus in China.
According to the source, the digital platform was used by more than 17 million people who moved between the Chinese mainland and "Macau".
