In this article, we conduct a literature review on the history and mathematical modeling of infectious diseases and COVID-19. Next, some simple epidemic dynamic models and the basic reproductive number theory are introduced. We propose a SEIDR model for COVID-19 and provide the solution methods for the basic reproduction number, parameters, and dynamic model. Finally, we simulate the early stages of the COVID-19 epidemic in Argentina, Indonesia, Mexico, and South Africa with the SEIDR model.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
