Description
In this talk, we shall emphasize on the mathematical modeling of COVID-19 including multiple features of the disease such as vaccination, limited medical resources and contact tracing or screening. We would also model the effect of non-pharmaceutical interventions such as quarantine, isolation and information induced behavior changes. Further, via a multi-patch model we shall explore the dynamics of COVID-19 disease in 3 states in India. The conclusions will be drawn from both models via mathematical analysis and data fitting. We also provide a cost effective analysis of the applied control interventions on our model and provide the best strategy to be implemented so that not only the infective population is reduced but also the cost of implementation of interventions is minimal.
