“…In this paper, we propose a new deterministic ODE model, which has four ODEs, for the study of spread and control of infectious disease of COVID-19. COVID-19 is an active research topic not only in the community of mathematical epidemiology group [ 1 , 6 , 9 , 28 , 41 ] but also the problem is of interests in various scientific communities including the group of modeling biological systems [ 13 , 8 ], biomedical engineering [ 33 , 5 ] and signal processing [ 46 ], etc. To prepare a new mathematical model for a specific disease, some population-specific assumptions are important to make the model simple.…”
