Abstract

Covid-19 has influenced health care delivery and the whole approach to public health. The traditional health care system could not function at this time. Technology has played an important role in mitigating the effect of this pandemic by taking various measures globally to control the lethality and transmissibility of the deadly virus among communities. New emerging technologies were used for prevention, contact tracing, surveillance, providing medical support at home, and for various other purposes. Socio-cultural, religious, and psychological domains are also influenced by this pandemic. Technology has changed our ways of living our social and working lives, but it has also created challenges. The present article has been written using PubMed and Google scholar databases to identify the emerging digital technology used during the COVID-19 pandemic and the challenges and disadvantages of the same. The paper will identify contemporary technologies and their associated challenges.
