Humanist algorithms for COVID-19 vaccines' distribution and its impact on business economics in the post-pandemic future

As the world is fighting against the continuous spread of the COVID-Sars-2 virus and the consequences the pandemic has brought about on economic, political and societal levels, the emergence of the vaccination programs seems to be the biggest hope for a quick return to, popularly called, the “new no...
