Abstract

In this research, we are interested in discussing the evolution of the COVID-19 infection cases and predicting the spread of COVID-19 disease in Algeria and India. To this aim, we will approximate the transmission rate in terms of the measures taken by the governments. The least square method is used with an accuracy of 95% for fitting the artificial solution with the real data declared by WHO for the purpose of approximating the density of asymptomatic individuals for COVID-19 disease. As a result, we obtained the different values of the basic reproduction number (BRN) corresponding to each measure taken by the governments. Moreover, we estimate the number of asymptomatic infected persons at the epidemic peak for each country. Further, we will determine the needed ICU beds (intense medical carte beds) and regular treatment beds. Also, we provide the outcome of governmental strategies in reducing the spread of disease. Combining all these components, we offer some suggestions about the necessity of using the recently discovered vaccines as Pfizer/Bioentec and Moderna for limiting the spread of the COVID-19 disease in the studied countries.
