COVID-19 Vaccine and Booster Shots Compatibility Analyzer using CMOS-based Monochrome Encoding

The continuous increase in COVID-19 positive cases in the Philippines might further weaken the local healthcare system. As such, an efficient system must be implemented to further improve the immunization efforts of the country. In this paper, a contactless digital electronic device is proposed to assess the vaccine and booster brand compatibility. Using Logisim 2.7.1, the logic diagrams were designed and simulated with the help of truth tables and Boolean functions. Moreover, the finalized logic circuit design was converted into its equivalent complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) and stick diagrams to help contextualize how the integrated circuits will be designed. Results have shown that the proposed device was able to accept three inputs of the top three COVID-19 vaccine brands (Sinovac, AstraZeneca, and Pfizer) and assess the compatibility of heterologous vaccinations. With the successful results of the circuit, it can be concluded that this low-power device can be used to manufacture a physical prototype for use in booster vaccination sites.
