Abstract The SIR or susceptible-infected-recovered model is the standard compartment model for understanding epidemics and has been used all over the world for COVID-19. While the SIR model assumes that infected patients are identical to symptomatic and infectious patients, it is now known that in COVID-19 pre-symptomatic patients are infectious and there are significant number of asymptomatic patients who are infectious. In this paper, population is separated into five compartments for COVID-19; susceptible individuals (S), pre-symptomatic patients (P), asymptomatic patients (A), quarantined patients (Q) and recovered and/or dead patients (R). The time evolution of population in each compartment is described by a set of ordinary differential equations. Numerical solution to the set of differential equations shows that quarantining pre-symptomatic and asymptomatic patients is effective in controlling the pandemic. |
