Abstract
Covid-19 has become pandemic, spreading all over the world. Scientists and engineers are working day and night to develop a vaccine, to evolve more testing facilities, and to enhance monitoring systems. Mobile and web-based applications, based on questionnaires, have already been developed to monitor the health of individuals. Internet of Things (IoT) can be used to avoid the spreading of Covid-19. Internet of Things is an interconnection of physical devices and the Internet. Devices are not only sensel and record, but can also monitor and respond. In this paper, we have reviewed the literature available on Covid-19, monitoring techniques, and suggested an IoT based architecture, which can be used to minimize the spreading of Covid-19.
