Smart contract to honor Li Wenliang (Coronavirus)
When Li Wenliang warned of the danger posed by the new coronavirus, before paying attention he was silenced, censored and repressed by Wuhan police, accusing him of spreading false information.
After fighting the virus in the central hospital of Wuhan, Li contracted the coronavirus, efforts to recover the Doctor were not enough, resulting in the death of Li Wenliang on February 6, news that spread rapidly through the networks social in china.
"Monument Contract"
Thanks to blockchain technology, a smart contract was created in tribute to Doctor Li, the "monument" the source code of the smart contract was created in the Ethereum blockchain and will allow the doctor's story to remain unchanged over time, becoming in an unprecedented event in the history of mankind.
"The source codes of the" Monument "contract, created around 2:30 UTC on Friday, wrote down the biography of Dr. Li in Chinese with a highlighted" RIP "and his contribution as a medical expert to alerting others of the danger of the virus as early as Dec. 30 - only to be reprimanded by local police later on. "
According to Coindesk Li's article, along with other people, they warned that the disease was contagious and were initially silenced, before the authorities admitted the seriousness of the matter.
Conclusions.
The tribute comes at a time when the deaths from the coronavirus in China officially exceed 1,018 cases, with 43,138 infected, a figure that apparently will continue to grow, I think it is necessary to unleash the use that is being given to blockchain technology, and Although it is a symbolic tribute, it makes history with the first known of this type.
Let me know your opinion about this topic and the applications that are given and can give Blockchain technology at this time, it is not only about cryptocurrencies but other applications as in this case the story of Dr. Li Wenliang is "immortalized" in the Ethereum chain.

By the way, I think smart contract-oriented cryptos are leading this rally.
Hello @deathcross, very good idea friend, thanks for sharing it with us.
COVID-19 as WHO names this strain of coronavirus is beginning to scare me. The rate at which people are contracting the disease is very alarming. Good for me, there is no case of it in AFRICA as of the time of writing. My fear is if it gets to Africa, it will spread faster than it has spread in the other parts of the world.
Tribute to Dr. Li Wenliang, if the government had attended to his call at the early stage, thjs would have been contained early. Thanks to the blockchain technology which has made it easy to document and keep his research in a way that it would not be altered ans at such honouring him.
Hello @gbenga, very worrying for everyone, on this side of the world (South America) it is difficult to predict what would happen, but I think we are very vulnerable and we are at a disadvantage.
Well compose write up add science to Crypto
Thanks friend!
I always fear extremely authoritarian and autocratic governments, because they usually commit these kinds of stupidities and facilitate tragedies that may have occurred, if not avoided, at least reduce their consequences.
I understand friend, thanks for sharing your opinion!
