INTRODUCTION
COVID-19 first appeared and was identified in Wuhan, China, around December 2019 (Chen et al.,
2020), then spread to various countries rapidly through people who had a history of travel to Wuhan (Tang
et al., 2020; WHO, 2020; Yousefpour, Jahanshahi, & Bekiros, 2020). On October 2, 2020, COVID-19
caused a total of 34,819,505 cases in the world to be positively infected. The latest information was on
October 2, 2020, more than 34 million infected cases in the world, with 1,032,741 deaths have been
reported. In Indonesia's first case on March 2, 2020, there were 2 people who were infected, namely a
mother and child who were suspected of contracting from a Japanese citizen (Sumartiningtyas, 2020).
While on October 2, 2020, data from the web Worldometer that Indonesia ranks 23 out of 215 countries
reported as infected with 295,499 confirmed cases, 10,972 deaths, and 221,340 recoveries. The number of
COVID-19 cases in Indonesia continues to increase every day. The government has made various efforts
to control COVID-19, such as social distancing, tracing, and working from home. Apart from some areas,
the government has also imposed very stick territorial restrictions.
The mathematical model that can describe the spread of disease is SIR (Susceptible-Infected-
Recovered) model. SIR model was first introduced by Kermack and McKendrick (1927), then became a
source of reference and played a role in the development of mathematics about the transmission of
infectious diseases (Müller & Kuttler, 2015; Murray, 2002). Modeling of the COVID-19 case has been
widely carried out with various models starting from research conducted by Soewono (2020) using SEIR
model, SEIAR model (Belgaid, Helal, & Venturino, 2020), SEIHR model (Zeb, Alzahrani, Erturk, &

Zaman, 2020), and SEIAQHR model (Jia et al., 2020). This study uses the SEIAQHR model based on
conditions in Indonesia and a combination of research from Belgaid et al. (2020), Jia et al. (2020), and Zeb
et al. (2020). The steps taken in this research are first, the construction of the COVID-19 model with
quarantine and isolation is carried out. Second, 𝑅0 value is obtained which is calculated by the next-
generation matrix method. Furthermore, a sensitivity analysis is implemented to show the most significant
parameters in the spread of COVID-19.

In this study, the tools and materials used are as follows: (i) MATLAB 2017. (ii) Computer with
processor specifications intel i5-8250U, RAM 8GB, and Windows 10 64-bit operation.
2. Research Flow
In this study, the following steps were carried out:

that an infected individual can transmit the disease on average more than one newly infected
individual, causing it to easily spread the disease.
Furthermore, the next-generation matrix (NGM) is one method to determining R0 . In the
NGM method, the compartment model used is the infected compartment (Brauer & Castillo-
Chavez, 2012). Furthermore, the infected compartment model can be written as:
dx

is the spectral radius of the matrix M , which is the largest modulus of the eigenvalues of the
matrix M .
c. Parameter sensitivity analysis
Parameter sensitivity analysis is used to identify the effect of each parameter on disease
spread based on 𝑅0 , this can provide input in the selection of appropriate control measures to
prevent an outbreak from COVID-19. The sensitivity analysis is divided into two based on Ingalls
(2012) is: (i) Global sensitivity analysis, which discusses the wide variation in a parameter value
which is often implemented using the Monte-Carlo method, and (ii) Local sensitivity analysis,
namely discussing local variations around, using the one-at-a-time (OAT) technique, which is the
most basic method with partial differentiation, in which various value parameters are taken one
by one.
In the local sensitivity analysis using the normalized sensitivity index. The normalized sensitivity
index is defined as follows (Chitnis, Hyman, & Cushing, 2008):
V p
CVp , (3)
p V
Where V is the variable to be analyzed, and p is the parameter.
d. The fourth-order Runge-Kutta

Using Runge Kutta Formulas in equation (4) to find the next value from equations (6) as follows:

Based on parameters in Table 1 and Table 2, it can be seen that the susceptible (S) is significantly
reduced in Figure 2 (a). Then Figures 2 (b), (c), (d) show exposed (E), symptomatic (I), and asymptomatic
(A) up significantly and down significantly, but in a certain period until the end of the time, there are still
individuals exposed, symptomatic and asymptomatic. Therefore, endemic diseases still epidemic during
this period. Figures 2 (e), (f) show the quarantine (Q) and isolation (H) subpopulations showing significant
increases and decreases due to overcoming the spike in the exposed, symptomatic and asymptomatic
subpopulations. Furthermore, the subpopulation of quarantine and isolation after a certain time until the
end of time remains. The recovered subpopulation (R) in Figure 2 (g) shows that the recovery overtime is
increasing.

3. Sensitivity analysis
The sensitivity analysis is measured using a sensitivity index. The sensitivity index makes it possible
to measure changes in the variable 𝑅0 when one parameter value is increased or decreased while the other
parameter values are maintained. A positive sensitivity index indicates that if the value of a parameter is
decreased or increased by 10%, then the value of 𝑅0 will decrease or increase by 10%. Conversely, a

negative sensitivity index indicates that if the value of a parameter is decreased or increased, the value of
𝑅0 will increase or decrease. The sensitivity analysis is obtained by the following command
1. %write R0 of equation (7)
2. R0=a*(beta1+beta2*sigma*((gama3+t+miu)*w-
t*w+t)/((gama1+miu+d)*(gama3+t+miu))+beta3*sigma*(1-
w)/(gama3+t+miu))/((miu+q1)*(miu+sigma+q2));

7. beta3b=diff(R0,beta3).*(beta3/R0); % derived to beta3
8. sigmab=diff(R0,sigma).*(sigma/R0); % derived to sigma
9. wb=diff(R0,w).*(w/R0); % derived to omega/w
10. tb=diff(R0,t).*(t/R0); derived to theta

13. q2b=diff(R0,q2).*(q2/R0); % derived to q2
14. gama1b=diff(R0,gama1).*(gama1/R0); % derived to gamma1
15. gama3b=diff(R0,gama3).*(gama3/R0); % derived to gamma3
16. db=diff(R0,d).*(d/R0); % derived to d
The normalized sensitivity index of 𝑅0 is related to the parameters shown in Figure 3. Parameters that
have a positive index, namely Λ, 𝛽1 , 𝛽2 , 𝛽3 , 𝜎, 𝜔, and 𝜃 are a positive effect on 𝑅0 . It means an increase in
value Λ, 𝛽1 , 𝛽2 , 𝛽3 , 𝜎, 𝜔, 𝜃 can increase the 𝑅0 value or cause an outbreak. Furthermore, the increase of
parameters whose sensitivity index is negative is 𝑞1 , 𝑞2 , 𝛾3 , 𝛾1 , 𝑑 and 𝜇 a negative effect of minimizing the
spread of disease. Furthermore, to specify the effect of changing parameter values on 𝑅0 , the value of each
parameter is increased or decreased. Suppose that each parameter is increased or decreased by 10%. Then
the effect of changes in parameter values that are increased or decreased by 10% on 𝑅0 is shown in Table
3, sorted from most sensitive to less sensitive as follows.

After doing the analysis, the parameters are increased or decreased by 10%. Then an example is given
a simulation of the effect of increasing or decreasing parameters applied to all subpopulations, as shown in
Figure 4 and Figure 5 below.

Figure 4 and Figure 5 show that the increase and decrease in parameters that affect the spread of
COVID-19 will affect each subpopulation, especially in the exposed, symptomatic, and asymptomatic
subpopulations. This also affects the quarantine and isolation subpopulations in response to an increase or
decrease in infections. The reason is, these parameters have proven to be the most influential in increasing
the outbreak and reducing outbreak COVID-19.
In this study, from Table 3, one parameter is taken to be used as an example of a graph of these
parameters' influence. The parameter is taken 𝑞1 , and the parameter effect graph is shown in Figure 4 and
Figure 5. Increasing and decreasing the 𝑞1 parameter by 10% can change the value of 𝑅0 . Because 𝑞1 has
a negative effect, it means that if the parameter value of 𝑞1 is increased by only 10%, the value of 𝑅0 will
decrease, but if the value of the parameter 𝑞1 is reduced by 10%, the value of 𝑅0 will increase.
Furthermore, the parameters obtained using the normalized sensitivity index in Figure 3 have
positive and negative values. The parameters that have a positive effect are Λ, 𝛽1 , 𝛽2 , 𝛽3 , 𝜎, 𝜔, 𝜃 and it means
that if the parameters that have a positive effect are increased or decreased by only 10%, the 𝑅0 the value
will increase or decrease. Then, the parameters that have a negative effect are 𝑞1 , 𝑞2 , 𝛾3 , 𝛾1 , 𝑑, 𝜇 and it
means that if the parameters have a negative effect are increased or decreased by 10%, the value of 𝑅0 will
decrease or increase. Therefore, to control the spread of COVID-19 decreases, we can increase negative
parameters and decrease positive parameters in Figure 3.
