Fractional order mathematical model for B.1.1.529 SARS-Cov-2 Omicron variant with quarantine and vaccination

In this paper, a fractional order nonlinear model for Omicron, known as B.1.1.529 SARS-Cov-2 variant, is proposed. The COVID-19 vaccine and quarantine are inserted to ensure the safety of host population in the model. The fundamentals of positivity and boundedness of the model solution are simulated. The reproduction number is estimated to determine whether or not the epidemic will spread further in Tamilnadu, India. Real Omicron variant pandemic data from Tamilnadu, India, are validated. The fractional-order generalization of the proposed model, along with real data-based numerical simulations, is the novelty of this study.
