In many countries, the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) has been deployed in tandem with other strategies to curb the spread of COVID-19, improve the safety of front-line personnel, increase efficacy by lessening the severity of the disease on human lives, and decrease mortality rates. Significant inroads have been achieved in terms of applications and technology, as well as security which have also been magnified through the rapid and widespread adoption of IoMT across the globe. A number of on-going researches show the adoption of secure IoMT applications is possible by incorporating security measures with the technology. Furthermore, the development of new IoMT technologies merge with Artificial Intelligence, Big Data and Blockchain offers more viable solutions. Hence, this paper highlights the IoMT architecture, applications, technologies, and security developments that have been made with respect to IoMT in combating COVID-19. Additionally, this paper provides useful insights into specific IoMT architecture models, emerging IoMT applications, IoMT security measurements, and technology direction that apply to many IoMT systems within the medical environment to combat COVID-19.

在许多国家，医疗物联网 (IoMT) 已与其他策略一起部署，以遏制 COVID-19 的传播、提高一线人员的安全、通过减轻疾病对人类生命的严重程度来提高疗效，并降低死亡率。在应用和技术以及安全性方面取得了重大进展，并且通过物联网在全球范围内的快速广泛采用，这些进步也得到了放大。一些正在进行的研究表明，通过将安全措施与技术相结合，安全物联网应用的采用是可能的。此外，新的物联网技术的发展与人工智能、大数据和区块链相结合，提供了更可行的解决方案。因此，本文重点介绍了 IoMT 架构、应用程序、技术和安全发展，这些进展与 IoMT 在抗击 COVID-19 方面所取得的进展有关。此外，本文还提供了有关特定 IoMT 架构模型、新兴 IoMT 应用、IoMT 安全测量以及适用于医疗环境中许多 IoMT 系统以对抗 COVID-19 的技术方向的有用见解。
