Abstract
We have proposed an SVIQR epidemic model for COVID-19 with vac- cination in this research. Some fundamental characteristics such as positivity of the solution, boundedness and invariance of the model are analyzed. Expressions for disease-free equilibrium (DFE) and endemic equilibrium (EE) points with certain criteria for existence are derived. Rigorous analysis of the model reveals that as- sociated DFE is locally asymptotically stable whenever the effective reproduction number is less than one. Also, the EE point is stable whenever certain restric- tions are satisfied. Sensitivity analysis is performed to identify key parameters that significantly affect the effective reproduction number. Analytical results are illustrated using parameter values and the results are analyzed using numerical simulation which suggests that the disease will eventually die out, particularly if the control measures are implemented above a specified level for a sustained period of time.
