Abstract

This study presents a novel approach for simulating the spread of the Omicron variant of the SARS-CoV-2 virus using fractional-order COVID-19 models and the Haar wavelet collocation method. The proposed model considers various factors that affect virus transmission, while the Haar wavelet collocation method provides an efficient and accurate solution for the fractional derivatives used in the model. This study analyzes the impact of the Omicron variant and provides valuable insights into its transmission dynamics, which can inform public health policies and strategies that are aimed at controlling its spread. Additionally, this study’s findings represent a significant step forward in understanding the COVID-19 pandemic and its evolving variants. The results of the simulation showcase the effectiveness of the proposed method and demonstrate its potential to advance the field of COVID-19 research. The COVID epidemic model is reformulated by using fractional derivatives in the Caputo sense. The existence and uniqueness of the proposed model are illustrated in the model, taking into account some results of fixed point theory. The stability analysis for the system is established by incorporating the Hyers–Ulam method. For numerical treatment and simulations, we apply the Haar wavelet collocation method. The parameter estimation for the recorded COVID-19 cases in Pakistan from 23 June 2022 to 23 August 2022 is presented.
