COVID-19 disease spread modeling by QSIR method: The parameter optimal control approach.

ABSTRACT:

Background

At present, India is in the decreasing phase of the second wave of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). But India as a country is in the second position in a high number of confirmed cases (33,678,786) in the world (after the United States of America) and third position in the number of COVID-19 deaths (after the United States and Brazil) at 465,082 deaths. Almost above numbers are dominantly seen in the second wave only. Thus, future long-term projections are required to mitigate the impact.

Methods

The conventional SIR model was modified so that a new compartment Q(quarantine) is added to the conventional SIR model to analyze the COVID-19 impact. The parameter optimal control technique was used to fit the curve by estimating the infectio
