Abstract
SARS-CoV-2 can survive in different environments and remain infectious for several days, which presents challenges to eliminating infectious diseases. It encourages researchers to study the effects of SARS CoV-2 on the environment. In this paper, we formulate an epidemic model for SARS-CoV-2, which focuses on the transmission of the virus under environmental conditions. Two distributed delays are introduced to describe the probability of the exposed and infected individuals in different infection periods based on the transmission of the virus in the environment. Th positivity and boundedness of solutions of model are derived. The basic reproduction number threshold theory is established and the results demonstrate that the persistence of COVID-19 depends on the basic reproduction number. Numerical simulations are presented to verify the theoretical results. Some measures are proposed to control and eliminate COVID-19 infectious diseases.
