A fractional complex network model for novel corona virus in China

Abstract

As is well known the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) is a zoonotic virus and our model
is concerned with the effect of the zoonotic source of the coronavirus during the
outbreak in China. We present a SEIS complex network epidemic model for the novel
coronavirus. Our model is presented in fractional form and with varying population.
The steady states and the basic reproductive number are calculated. We also present
some numerical examples and the sensitivity analysis of the basic reproductive
number for the parameters
