Description

1 TARIFF BLOCK CHAIN-BASED VACCINE APPROVAL / REJECTION SYSTEM Technical Area This invention allows individuals to securely approve or reject vaccine applications using their digital identities. It involves a blockchain-based system that enables them to accomplish this. Previous Technique With the current technology, it is not possible to determine at what age (in months for babies) and in what condition individuals are affected. Which vaccines are mandatory is determined by the Ministry of Health. These vaccines have been identified. The task of monitoring and administering these vaccines falls to the staff working in health centers. It is provided by family physicians. Individuals are required to get the necessary vaccinations. If they refuse, individuals can go to their family doctor's office and submit a vaccine refusal form. The document must be filled out and signed with a wet signature. All vaccinations. Since the task of monitoring has been given to family doctors, the Ministry of Health is addressing vaccine refusal. family due to individuals who did not declare their eligibility and did not receive their mandatory vaccinations It imposes serious financial penalties on its doctors. These penalties apply to them. To avoid this, family doctors call their assigned patients by phone and say 20 They are expected to contact them and have them fill out this refusal form. They cannot be reached by phone. in this situation, individuals can go to their residences to reach their patients or They are expected to prepare a report at the address where they were unable to reach the person. This is also what doctors need to do. This causes them to have to put in extra effort in addition to their already demanding work schedules. Furthermore, the preservation of vaccine refusal statements and their presentation during inspections are also required. 25 This involves a significant manual process, such as scanning and processing the data into the system, which also adds to the archiving and paperwork burden. This is the reason. These files containing personal data must be stored securely. This also creates a burden. The manual processes involved here lead to errors and safety concerns. It is susceptible to problems and delays. Furthermore, the process of auditing physical documents is also problematic. It requires more effort than digital document processes. Inspectors' audit 30 Finding and verifying the necessary documents during this process is time-consuming and laborious. 2 Therefore, both individuals and health authorities need a safer and more effective approach. A new system is needed that will allow it to function in this way. According to Chinese patent document number CN110797098, which is included in the prior art, 5 The patent in question refers to a child vaccination information management system. The invention discussed in this document relates to the technical field of child vaccination information management. and an Internet of Things-based child vaccination information management system. The system includes A, B, C, and N block database servers, Vaccination data management software is installed and run on these servers. Every 10 A blockchain server is used as a blockchain node, and the vaccine information is stored there. They are interconnected to form a blockchain network. Vaccine information management. The software uses the names, ID card numbers, or birth certificates of vaccinated children. It identifies children by their numbers. Also, smart terminals or PCs. terminals, corresponding to access permissions in the vaccine information management software client 15 It simultaneously shares incoming child vaccination information. This system is currently in place. The child vaccination information management system allows parents to manage their children's vaccination records. This solves the problem of not being able to support storing data in electronic format. Brief Description of the Invention 20 The goal of this invention is to enable individuals to securely approve / reject vaccine vaccinations using their digital identities. a blockchain-based system that enables them to carry out their transactions to accomplish. Detailed Description of the Invention The "Blockchain Based Vaccine" project was carried out to achieve the purpose of this invention. The "Approval / Rejection System" is shown in the attached document; Figure 1. Schematic view of the system described in the invention. 3 The parts shown in the figure are individually numbered, and the corresponding numbers correspond to these numbers. given below: 1.

Server (5) sends the relevant data of the user who approves the submitted notification via e-nabız. It is configured to allow access to e-health by sharing. Server 20 (5), the user who logs into e-nabız and the child he / she is responsible for It is configured to provide a list of required vaccinations. Server (5) Users who wish to receive any vaccine on the list can do so via the application (3). The server (5) is configured to receive the request. After receiving the request the user confirms their desire to be vaccinated and the request is entered into the blockchain database (4) 25 to provide a screen that can be signed with a private key to enable writing It is configured to process the vaccination request signed with the private key. The server (5) Thanks to the Zero Knowledge Proof (ZKP) algorithm, only It will show whether the user wants to get vaccinated or not, in other words, their identification information. 30 to record in the blockchain database (4) without including the details of the data. It is configured. The server (5) sends the user who wants to get vaccinated to the family doctor. 7 It is configured to redirect to the vaccination appointment scheduling screen. The presenter (5) went to the health center at the time of the vaccination appointment and received his vaccine and health The user scanned the QR code on the verification system located in the furnace and requested proof. with consent, to enable the sharing of identity information with the relevant system. is configured. Server (5) verifies the user's digital identity information. Verification by accessing the Ministry of Population and Citizenship Affairs through the system then the authorized personnel enter the vaccination information of the user into the system. It is structured as follows: The server (5) is created by the Ministry of Health. to add the digital vaccination card to the user's digital identity wallet It is configured. The server (5) checks whether the person has received a particular vaccine. in accordance with the request made through the application (3) in a place where it is questioned to generate a QR code containing information about the user's vaccination status It is configured. The server (5) reads the generated QR code and the user In accordance with the approval, information regarding vaccination status must be provided to the authorized person in a valid manner. It is configured to be presented as a document. Server (5), 15 If the user does not want to be vaccinated, a vaccination refusal statement is obtained and a special key is provided. ZKP to the blockchain database (4) via user signature through application (3). Thanks to its algorithms, it only uses personal information to detect that the person did not consent to being vaccinated. It is configured to save without sharing. Industrial Application of the Invention This invention allows individuals to securely approve / reject vaccine vaccinations using their digital identities. a Hyperledger Indy based system (1) that enables them to perform their operations It offers. Individual authentication processes, Zero Knowledge Proof 25 Personal information privacy is ensured by securely carrying out this process using algorithms. Protection is ensured. After each vaccination, individuals are provided with access via a unique blockchain. A verifiable digital vaccination card issued by the Ministry of Health is presented. The vaccination card can be added to an individual's digital identity wallet. This solution eliminates manual processes. By digitizing, it increases efficiency, manages personal data securely, and 30 Blockchain technology provides transparency by creating irreversible records. 8 Around these fundamental concepts, the invention is called a "Blockchain-Based Vaccine Approval / Rejection System". It is possible to develop a wide variety of applications related to (1)”, and the invention is here It cannot be limited to the examples given; it is essentially as stated in the claims.
