yes of course bitcoin and blockchain also the medicine that have the technology will touch the African state soon, after the technology and transportation system are upgraded i think it will very easy to make sure that technology and medicine in African. so the best things we should do is wait, wait until the technology increased and upgraded
The technology if allowed and fully embraced would meet every aspects of human life. It can accommodate anything as long as the human mind can think of it. Blockchain Technology is the way to solving human needs.
The world has since been stirred up by the wind of blockchain possibilities seen in fintech; records and data analysis and also recently in politics. But can we see thesame possibilities in healthcare for the poor in Africa?
Yes it is possible. The blockchain technology is the most advanced technology there is today. Africa may not be in the first world but ablot of people from the first world are helping out africa. It will not be long til africa experience blockchain especially in tracking help from different countries.
I think that poor people in Africa are not ready to accept the blockchain system, they need more real help. living of malawi is very bad, their income in a day is only $ 1. and that's not enough to make ends meet.
in malawi also has a disasters and HIV, and to deal with the problem, I think they need real help. because they do not understand technology.
so, for now, I think that blockchain will not help them.

Africa will need a lot of investment into infrastructure and proper functional governments (that are able to preserve law and order) before seeing blockchain adoption.
This is again a very good topic of discussion but just like every other good topic in this board, this got buried too
It has been discussed over several occasions how blockchain charity/donation system can be used to solve the medicine crises in Africa. Turns out, money is not really the problem, accessibility is. A whole of communities in Africa live with their cultural beliefs and for them nature should have the cure for everything. Doctors aren't involved unless the plaque has taken several lives. In short, problem also lies in the way of thinking. Blockchain is certain to provide financial help to bring medicinal access to everybody but they're not ready to give up on their cultural ways just yet.

Blokcchain technology application to medicine and healthcare in Africa is in progress. I came across a project that used blockchain applications to verify the authenticity of a drugs by scanning a barcode. I think in the future we will see more advance applications which will be beneficial to the poor.
Most of such projects end up paying more money to the military and corrupt politicians before they make their way in African villages. 
Of course, it is conceivable. In any case, I think the administration of African nations needs to receive the Blockchain innovation for it to be reached out to the needy individuals in Africa. I trust Blockchain will change the world. Actually blockchain has the capability now the rest depends on the African government.
It's not the blockchain evolution that is what they're fighting against, it's its application in cryptocurrencies as a means of exchange. There are many projects that are going on in the background.

How blockchain technology can be applied to medicine in Africa?I really can't understand
I saw some medicine project but now don't have any project in Africa

They will need the funding, I think. But yes, blockchain can be a really big help in medicine, particularly in healthcare. Because the technology allows for having
a distributed database for information. And this means medical records will have increased accessibility, accuracy and safety. I think it's just a matter of time, funding and government assistance for this to happen. But since the technology along with the concept of virtual currency is rapidly gaining attention. The world will adapt to this really beneficial technology.
Blockchain application to medicine is essential not only in Africa but the whole world. Verifying authenticity of drugs,research into new discovery and data can be employed on the block chain for efficiency

I think Africa started to develop some blockchain already. It not about healthcare but i think the time will come and it will help the needy in Africa
Yes, there are actually quite a few blockchain businesses set up already, lots of fiance related like paying bills but from memory none of them was related to healthcare. But it will come with time
I strongly agree with your thoughts on this. Africa needs to win her fight against corruption to enable the idea of blockchain have it's full use. The blockchain technology promises transparency in it's use. This will limit the corrupt practices in all spheres of administration. The African leaders know this truth and they are not ready to give up their greed. I hope they speedily adopt it's use as the rest of the world are doing. Blockchain is the way!
Great idea, I really like it. I think it will be interesting for a lot of people who want to profit 3 times. Great, good fellows!
The problems with medicine in poor countries is the sheer number of counterfeit drugs which cause even more damage than the illness. Take a look at "farmatrust" which solves this problem via blockchain technology. I think the ICO is still ongoing if you wish to invest and make a fast buck
It will take a time for make blockchain to help Africa,Because Governments & it's politicians always push back these types of advantages that can get good future for poor peoples. Hope world can give some support to these poor peoples & blockchain can make good future for all.

Of cos it possible. But I think the government of African countries need to adopt the Blockchain technology for it to be extended to the poor people in Africa. I believe Blockchain will change the world.
