| Abstract | ||
| In November 2019, a respiratory virus, SARS-CoV 2 or severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, expanded globally from the city of Wuhan, China. In March 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) regarded the SARS-CoV 2 virus as a global pandemic. Since then many government efforts across the world focused on prevention and containment of the virus. Countries which had low COVID-19 infection rates share common strategies based on early surveillance and testing, and contact-tracing. These strategies has depend on using specific technologies and adopting them in health care and early detection of the disease; so that the pandemic has been carefully and critically managed and planned. Many researchers and innovators around the world have worked hard to develop many important digital technologies that facilitates people life during the pandemic and quarantine and to help fight against the virus. In this paper, a review performed to describe the existing technologies that occurred during Corona Virus Disease 2019 (or COVID-19). In particular, some technologies, whether it is software or hardware, are based on tracking COVID-19, others were based on fighting it whereas some were based on support organizations in processing data and giving new insights to fight that virus. The review of this paper highlights and represents a picture of the current technologies which with a distinctive impact in this period and had a crucial role in keeping the society work in the time of quarantines and lockdowns. | ||
