For each country, in fact, setting in motion the bureaucratic machine and organizing vaccinations in a practical and above all efficient way is not child&#8217;s play because we are dealing not only with the actual administration of vaccine doses but also with the management of the contagion. In short, a real challenge.  <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<div class=\"et_pb_module et_pb_image et_pb_image_271 et_animated et-waypoint\">\n<p>\t\t\t\t<span class=\"et_pb_image_wrap \"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/temp_new.vmenginelab.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/vaccino-covid-bottiglia-min.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"Covid vaccine bottle-min\" class=\"wp-image-32716\" \/><\/span>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n<div class=\"et_pb_module et_pb_text et_pb_text_959  et_pb_text_align_left et_pb_bg_layout_light\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\">\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And this challenge has been taken up by the world of hi-tech, which includes Cloud Computing and Artificial Intelligence.  <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Northwell Health, Lake County, University of Massachusetts Amherst and the Gavi Vaccine Alliance are the leading healthcare providers that are already using technology from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/it\/\">Salesforce<\/a>, a U.S. cloud computing company based in San Francisco, to optimize and simplify the management of vaccination programs.  <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These are practical solutions that insiders have been experimenting with for months and the latest is called &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/products\/vaccine-cloud\/overview\/\">Vaccine Cloud<\/a>&#8221; which is based on the Customer 360 platform, in which mobility applications, bots and tools based on artificial intelligence, analysis tools and more converge and are made accessible in &#8220;as a service&#8221; mode thanks to the versatility of cloud computing.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<div class=\"et_pb_module et_pb_text et_pb_text_960  et_pb_text_align_left et_pb_bg_layout_light\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\">\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But how can this kind of technological solutions concretely help public administrations? One way to use the &#8220;Vaccine Cloud&#8221; can be to check the progress of the vaccination process in real time and refine it in a key  <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201c<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">data driven&#8221; based on health needs and risk factors encountered. In addition, all vaccine data can be managed and tracked in one place, giving you total visibility into the situation.  <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Clearly, there are incredible practical benefits for healthcare companies that find themselves administering hundreds of doses a day such as keeping the inventory of vaccine doses but also syringes and personal protective equipment in order, staff training, external communications to notify the patient of the timing of the first injection or the reminder for the booster.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Never before has order, precision and tracking been needed, and Cloud Computing is certainly the solution if we consider that &#8220;standard spreadsheets, databases and first-generation digital tools cannot be up to the task of equitably distributing doses around the world&#8221;.
