Contribution : ​Quantum Internet and quantum technologies have many opportunities within health care, such as for fast drug development, data protections and so forth. Quantum has the opportunity to be the leading technology for health care for good. There is a need for international collaboration for the speedy development of drugs to meet the demands of crisis situations, such as the Covid 19 pandemic. As such, an international body, to coordinate quantum technology for healthcare, is a must. This body should be established soon, so that it can also start to develop the base principles for the Governance of the International Quantum Internet and especially with respect to data sharing and collaboration, and also how it associates with the curent internet. Ethics for Quantum Technologies and the Quantum Internet and its interaction with Artificial Intelligence and other technologies, is an area that must be developed from an international multi-stakeholder perspective. A special focus on how developing countries can also participate in this new technology should be established.
