Mathematical Analysis of a Discrete System Modeling COVID-19

COVID-19 is one of the worst pandemics ever; it is spreading rapidly and creating a health crisis around the world. This disease continues to seriously threaten human life and has caused more than 759 million infections and over 6.8 million deaths worldwide. In this work, we propose a discrete mathe...

description COVID-19 is one of the worst pandemics ever; it is spreading rapidly and creating a health crisis around the world. This disease continues to seriously threaten human life and has caused more than 759 million infections and over 6.8 million deaths worldwide. In this work, we propose a discrete mathematical model of COVID-19 to predict the evolution of the dynamics of this pandemic. We calculate the basic reproduction number and the equilibrium points, and then perform the stability analysis theoretically and numerically. Finally, we conclude with local sensitivity analysis.
