Due to the increasing number of infected people and the number of deaths from COVID-19 over the world, there is a big challenge towards finding a radical solution to reduce the spread of disease and infection. The early detection, isolating the infected persons and tracing possible contacts are very critical. This paper presents an integrated approach that connects hospitals/laboratories, COVID-19 negative persons, positive persons, and contact persons to a cloud-based consortium blockchain system to guarantee reliable secured COVID-19 spread control. The proposed model guarantees a real time monitoring, tracking, and updating to persons status whether normal, contact, or positive COVID-19 case, and the related updates are done in the blockchain based on the results of execution of the blockchain smart contract rules. Tracking infected persons and their contacts is implemented using IoT sensors to determine contact time and spatial distances between them. The GPS/Bluetooth/UWB was used as IoT sensors technologies to determine the distances between the infected people and those in contact. The proposed blockchain Ethereum system smart contract was implemented by solidity programming language through the Remix IDE. The proposed approach was tested and successfully detected the contact cases and managed the different persons states on the cloud based blockchain system applying the smart contract rules accurately. As the calculated distances using the proposed model in the distance of one meter do not exceed the error rate of 11 cm. © 2021 Little Lion Scientific
