ABSTRACT
In December 2019, the severe acute respiratory syndrome 2 (SARS-CoV-2) coronavirus outbreak began in Wuhan, China, and quickly spread to practically every corner of the globe, killing millions of people. SARS-CoV-2 produced numerous variants, five of which have been identified as variants of concern (VOC) by the World Health Organization (WHO) (Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, and Omicron). We conducted a comparative epidemiological analysis of SARS-CoV-2 and its VOC in this paper. We compared the effects of various spike (S) protein mutations in SARS-CoV-2 and its VOC on transmissibility, illness severity, hospitalization risk, fatality rate, immunological evasion, and vaccine efficacy in this review. We also looked into the clinical characteristics of patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 and its VOC.
ABSTRACT
The fractal-fraction derivative is an advanced category of fractional derivative. It has several approaches to real-world issues. This work focus on the investigation of 2nd wave of Corona virus in India. We develop a time-fractional order COVID-19 model with effects of disease which consist system of fractional differential equations. Fractional order COVID-19 model is investigated with fractal-fractional technique. Also, the deterministic mathematical model for the Omicron effect is investigated with different fractional parameters. Fractional order system is analyzed qualitatively as well as verify sensitivity analysis. The existence and uniqueness of the fractional-order model are derived using fixed point theory. Also proved the bounded solution for new wave omicron. Solutions are derived to investigate the influence of fractional operator which shows the impact of the disease on society. Simulation has been made to understand the actual behavior of the OMICRON virus. Such kind of analysis will help to understand the behavior of the virus and for control strategies to overcome the disseise in community.
ABSTRACT
Different countries of the world are facing a serious pandemic of corona virus disease (COVID-19). One of the most typical treatments for COVID-19 is social distancing, which includes lockdown; it will help to decrease the number of contacts for undiagnosed individuals. The main aim of this article is to construct and evaluate a fractional-order COVID-19 epidemic model with quarantine and social distancing. Laplace homotopy analysis method is used for a system of fractional differential equation (FDEs) with Caputo and Atangana-Baleanu-Caputo (ABC) fractional derivative. By applying the ABC and Caputo derivative, the numerical solution for fractional-order COVID-19 epidemic model is achieved. The uniqueness and existence of the solution is checked by Picard-Lindelof's method. The proposed fractional model is demonstrated by numerical simulation which is useful for the government to control the spread of disease in a practical way.
ABSTRACT
An important advantage of fractional derivatives is that we can formulate models describing much better systems with memory effects. Fractional operators with different memory are related to the different type of relaxation process of the nonlocal dynamical systems. Therefore, we investigate the COVID-19 model with the fractional derivatives in this paper. We apply very effective numerical methods to obtain the numerical results. We also use the Sumudu transform to get the solutions of the models. The Sumudu transform is able to keep the unit of the function, the parity of the function, and has many other properties that are more valuable. We present scientific results in the paper and also prove these results by effective numerical techniques which will be helpful to understand the outbreak of COVID-19.
