ABSTRACT

Emergency logistics plays an increasingly important role in major pandemic prevention and control, and blockchain is considered to be a widely used cutting-edge technology. Exploring how to apply the advanced technology of blockchain to improve emergency logistics has important theoretical significance and practical value. The analysis of research status shows that there are few literatures on the application of blockchain in emergency logistics under major pandemic. This paper first analyzes the coupling relationship between the demand of pandemic prevention and control for emergency logistics and the advantages of blockchain technology, then explores the application of blockchain technology in the construction of emergency logistics system under pandemic from three dimensions of efficient operation, donation assistance and intelligent development, and finally puts forward three typical application modes and formulates a series of relevant measures, so as to effectively improve the level of emergency logistics and provide stronger support for effectively coping with pandemic.
