Represent state variables of COVID-19 model equation (2).

SPopulation of susceptible individuals

EPopulation of individuals exposed to COVID-19
Population of infectious asymptomatic individuals (manifest no symptoms)
Population of infectious symptomatic individuals with mild symptoms (non-critical symptoms)
Population of infectious symptomatic individuals with severe symptoms (critically ill)
Population of infectious asymptomatic individuals isolated from the general population via contact tracing
HPopulation of infectious individuals hospitalized due to COVID-19
Population of recovered (tested negative) individuals with strong post COVID-19 protective immunity (protected against reinfection)
Population of recovered individuals with weak or no COVID-19 protective immunity (partially protected against reinfection if exposed to COVID-19)
