Abstract

The world has been facing the challenge by COVID-19 since the end of 2019. Covid-19 is a pandemic that spread across the world. Day and night, scientists and researchers are trying to develop a vaccine, to control the Coronavirus. Before a successful vaccine is developed, the world will have to fight the COVID-19 pandemic with precaution. The monitoring of the health of individuals is now done with a smartphone, and web-based apps focused on questionnaires. Networks of objects, devices or items that are embedded with sensors are referred to as the Internet of Things (IoT). The Internet of Things (IoT) can be utilized to stop spreading the Covid-19. It affects not only the healthcare cost reduction but also improves the fast recovery of infected patient treatment. Therefore, the present study is an attempt to explore, discuss, and highlight the overall applications of the well-proven IoT philosophy by offering a perspective roadmap to tackle the COVID-19 pandemic. In this paper, real-time detection and alerting system for Covid-19 monitoring technique are proposed based on the available literature
