🚼 vac-chain

Just a POC, nothing more!

There are discrete pieces of health information that, if stored on-chain may have a huge impact on operational efficiency, availability and patient safety. Vaccination and allergy information are typical examples. vac-chain is a prototype of an on-chain storage of vaccination information on Ethereum blockchain using smart contracts in solidity using the truffle Drizzle box (React/Redux). This may be extended for similar use cases in medicine.

Instructions

• check out this repo and npm install in the main folder
• npm run ganache
• Open a second terminal and

truffle compile
truffle migrate

• switch to app folder cd app
• npm install
• npm start
• Access application at localhost:3000

Steps

• Provider adds a record
• Patient confirms
• Clients can verify - if code matches hcn, returns name as status
• Please note that, for the status to work, all three roles should have different active accounts. So run ganache on a different machine and add the IP to drizzleOptions.js and truffle-config.js. Finally, run the /app on three different systems for each role.
