This Model was first developed from the SIR model (Susceptible, Infected, Recovered). It was designed to explore relationship between the government policies regarding the COVID-19 and its influences on the economy as well as well-being of local residents.
Assumptions:
Government policies will be triggered when reported COVID-19 case are 10 or less;
Government policies reduces the infection and economic growth at the same time;
Ro= 5.7 Ro is the reproduction number, here it means one person with COVID-19 can potentially transmit the coronavirus to 5 to 6 people,
Interesting Insights:
In the first two weeks, the infected people showed an exponential growth, in another word, that’s the most important period to control the number of people who got affected.
