Abstract

In 2020, a virus started making news throughout the world because of its extraordinary ability to spread from person to person. The coronavirus is this virus. The coronavirus illness of 2019 (COVID-19) has killed thousands of people in several nations, including Italy, the United States, India, Brazil, China, and others. Not a single person is spared from this epidemic; COVID-19 affects millions of individuals worldwide. However, this has an impact on a number of factors, one of which is wearable technology, such as smart watches, smart bracelets, smart shoes, smart belts, etc. Wearable technology is becoming more and more important in this age of digitization, especially in light of the current COVID-19 epidemic. Therefore, we will talk about the COVID-19 pandemic's part in the market's rise as well as its effects in this essay. This essay presents wearable technology's uses and gives a quick explanation of how it may be used to combat the current epidemic. Remote health monitoring, screening, real-time tracking, improved treatment without spreading the illness to other people, and surveillance were all approved by these gadgets. As a result, it lessens the workload for the healthcare sector in terms of coronavirus prevention and transmission reduction. Millions of people worldwide suffer from respiratory conditions that call for constant observation in order to be treated. This wearable gadget assists medical professionals in monitoring the breathing parameters of patients infected with the coronavirus and offers ways to obtain the patient's critical information in the event of a chronic sickness. The other people's perspective is impacted by hearing about patients' progress, which raises tension and anxiety levels. Wearable technology that monitors a person's heart rate variability can help them reduce their stress and anxiety (HRV).
