BackgroundCOVID-19 has been deeply affecting peoples lives all over the world. It is significant for prevention and control to model the evolution effectively and efficiently. MethodsWe first propose the multi-chain Fudan-CCDC model which is based on the original Fudan-CCDC model to describe the revival of COVID-19 in some countries. Multi-chains are considered as the superposition of distinctive single chains. Parameter identification is carried out by minimizing the penalty function. ResultsFrom results of numerical simulations, the multi-chain model performs well on data fitting and reasonably interprets the revival phenomena. The band of {+/-}25% fluctuation of simulation results could contain most seemly unsteady increments. ConclusionThe multi-chain model has better performance on data fitting in revival situations compared with the single-chain model. It is predicted by the three-chain model with data by Apr 21 that the epidemic curve of Iran would level off on round May 10, and the final cumulative confirmed cases would be around 88820. The upper bound of the 95% confidence interval would be around 96000.
