Abstract

The present study (IMRaD) seeks to answer the question: what is the epidemiological cycle of COVID19?; that is, its complete epi curve, from the appearance of the first case, to the phase in which the epidemic is fully controlled; For this, two working methods have been used: a) case study; and b) projections with Mathlab with the model of Milan Batista. The objective of this study is to estimate the date on which the epidemic of COVID-19 in El Salvador will end considering mathematical modeling tools and the study of cases from other countries such as Taiwan, New Zealand, South Korea and Singapore.
