What for ?
His start up is building an end-to-end AI-Blockchain
based, supply chain for Covid vaccine
Here is that report :
Extract :
Ø “Just
imagine the challenge of supplying vaccines across more than 150 countries and
the likely scramble to get supplies. It is mind blowing,” says Chakravarthy.
Ø “Even
in a normal environment, when millions of vaccine doses are supplied, it is a
challenge to keep track of the progress right from the company where the
production happens to the final place administration”, he
says
Ø Chakravarthy says that it was in 2016, after
tinkering with the idea of how to
track a product right from where it gets manufactured to see how it gets
delivered and who uses it, he
realised that most
companies do not have any clue as to what happens after they make a product.
Ø “We have developed a Vaccine Ledger, which helps track every single dose, right from the time it is manufactured, it
is given a unique ID, moves
through complex supply chains from one government to another, then to the
healthcare set-up and, finally, where it is administered,” he explains.

my following blog as email to the Cabinet Ministers :
Rationing of
Covid Vaccine ? ………………………………………………………………………[ 06 July 2020 ]
Extract :
Besides using such
exhaustive data for all ( Covid infected or not ) in order for AI software to
tell us the “ priorities for
vaccination “, what else should the
Government do ensure that there is no “ black
marketing “ of the limited
supplies of the vaccine ?
Answer :
Today ,
each strip / bottle of a medicine carries “ batch number “
# For
vaccine, each bottle / vial , besides carrying Batch Number, must carry
UNIQUE bottle number / vial number .
# Vaccine Manufacturer will
record which bottle got dispatched to which drug store/when.
Data will get automatically transmitted
to Govt’s Central Server
# Pharmacy
Stores to maintain Computerized
Record of who ( which person ) was sold a
given
“ Vial Number “ . This data will get automatically transmitted to Govt’s
Central
Server
# No
vial to be sold to anyone unless a Mobile App ( VaccineVend ? ) clearly displays that
person’s
priority ( as determined by AI ) , as HIGH / MEDIUM / LOW . No
person without
such
Mobile App will be sold the vaccine
# Chemist
will enter sale-details in customer / buyer’s Mobile App , which will get
automatically
transmitted to Govt’s Central Server

Dear
Sid,
Talking of “ End-to-End Supply Chain
“, you might want to look up :
Highways to Hyper-loops …………………………………………………………………..[ 09 March 2018 ]
Where I wrote :
Aim to
turn India’s highways into friction-less “ Conveyor
Belts of Commerce “
Look up
conveyor belts in the warehouses of Amazon / Flipkart / UPS / FedEx etc , which
carry hundreds of packages per minute – with each package carrying dozens of
different items ( can we replace “ packages “ with TRUCKS and “ conveyor belts “ with HIGHWAYS ? )
Each
item within each box , has RFID chip and
QR code ( interlinked )
Sensors
placed along the conveyor belt “ reads “ each package and each item inside each
package . No need to stop the flow of the packages
E-way
Bill too , will have all the QR Codes / RFID data , of each item loaded onto
the truck ( Price / Origin City / Destination City / Supplier with GSTN
registration number / Recipient with his GSTN registration number / GST – ISGST
– SGST amount for each item / Date of Dispatch / Validity of E Way Bill etc )
Just
like today’s Mobile Apps of UPS / FedEx enable online tracking of each package and of
individual items within each package , that “ high technology
interface “ being proposed by the Government should incorporate the
following technologies :
# QR code / RFID
chip / GPS based NaviC / Internet of Vehicles
( IoV )
