of the final size of the second phase of the coronavirus COVID 19 epidemic by the logistic model\n\nAbstract\nIn the note, the logistic growth regression model is used for the estimation of the final size and its peak time of the coronavirus epidemic in China, South Korea, and the rest of the World.\nIn the previous article [1], we try to estimate the final size of the epidemic for the whole World using the logistic model and SIR model. The estimation was about 83000 cases.\nBoth models show that the outbreak is moderating; however, new data showed a linear upward trend. It turns out that the epidemy in China was slowing but is begin to spread elsewhere in the World.\nIn this note, we will give forecasting epidemic size for China, South Korea, and the rest of the World and daily predictions using the logistic model. Full daily reports and counties outside of China generated are available at https://www.researchgate.net/publication/339912313_Forecasting_of_final_COVID -19_epidemic_size\nThe MATLAB program fitVirus used for calculations is freely available from https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/74411-fitvirus We note that logistic models give similar results as the SIR model (at least for the case of China and South Korea). However, the logistic model is given by explicit formula and is thus much simpler for regression analysis than the SIR model, where one must on each optimization step solve a system of ordinary differential equations. (One may,\n\nhowever, use approximate solution and thus obtain four-parameter problem which can be very sensitive to initial guess). Yet, the logistics model has its drawbacks as the epidemic approaches its final stage: the actual number of cases may be slightly larger than that predicted by the logistics model. If the actual number of cases begins to exceed the predicted end-state systematically, then a second phase of the epidemic is likely to occur, and the model will no longer be applicable.\nIn mathematical epidemiology, when one uses a phenomenological approach, the epidemic dynamics can be described by the following variant of logistic growth model [2] [3] [4] [5] \nwhere C is an accumulated number of cases, 0 r infection rate, and 0 K is the final epidemic size. If 0 0 0 C C is the initial number of cases then the solution of (1) is \nWhen t the number of cases follows the Weibull function\nThe growth rate dC dt reaches its maximum when\n .

When convergence is achieved, then one may try to predict the final epidemic size by iterated Shanks\nThere is no natural law or process behind this transformation; therefore, it must be used with some care. In particular, the calculated limit is useless if n K C , i.e., it is below the current data.\nThe logistic model (2) contains three parameters: K, r, and A, which should be determined by regression analysis. Because the model is nonlinear, some care should be taken for initial guess. First of all, in the early stage, the logistic curve follows an exponential growth curve (3) , so the estimation of K is practically impossible. With enough data, the initial guess can be obtain in the following way. Expressing t from (2) and use three equidistant data point yield the following system of three equations:\nThis system has a solution [7] \nThe solution is acceptable when all the unknowns are positive.\nFormulas (10),(11),(12) are used to calculate the initial approximation in the fitVirus program. For practical calculation, we take the first, the middle, and the last data point. If this calculation fails, we consider regression analysis as questionable. Final .

It seems that the epidemic in China is in the ending stage (Fig 3, Fig 4) .\nThe short-term forecasting is given in Table 3 where we see that the discrepancy of actual and forecasted number of cases is within 2%.

The estimation was about 83000 cases.\nBoth models show that the outbreak is moderating; however, new data showed a linear upward trend. It turns out that the epidemy in China was slowing but is begin to spread elsewhere in the World.\nIn this note, we will give forecasting epidemic size for China, South Korea, and the rest of the World and daily predictions using the logistic model. Full daily reports and counties outside of China generated are available at https://www.researchgate.net/publication/339912313_Forecasting_of_final_COVID -19_epidemic_size\nThe MATLAB program fitVirus used for calculations is freely available from https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/74411-fitvirus We note that logistic models give similar results as the SIR model (at least for the case of China and South Korea). However, the logistic model is given by explicit formula and is thus much simpler for regression analysis than the SIR model, where one must on each optimization step solve a system of ordinary differential equations. (One may,\n\nhowever, use approximate solution and thus obtain four-parameter problem which can be very sensitive to initial guess). Yet, the logistics model has its drawbacks as the epidemic approaches its final stage: the actual number of cases may be slightly larger than that predicted by the logistics model. If the actual number of cases begins to exceed the predicted end-state systematically, then a second phase of the epidemic is likely to occur, and the model will no longer be applicable.\nIn mathematical epidemiology, when one uses a phenomenological approach, the epidemic dynamics can be described by the following variant of logistic growth model [2] [3] [4] [5] \nwhere C is an accumulated number of cases, 0 r infection rate, and 0 K is the final epidemic size. If 0 0 0 C C is the initial number of cases then the solution of (1) is \nWhen t the number of cases follows the Weibull function\nThe growth rate dC dt reaches its maximum when\n .

When convergence is achieved, then one may try to predict the final epidemic size by iterated Shanks\nThere is no natural law or process behind this transformation; therefore, it must be used with some care. In particular, the calculated limit is useless if n K C , i.e., it is below the current data.\nThe logistic model (2) contains three parameters: K, r, and A, which should be determined by regression analysis. Because the model is nonlinear, some care should be taken for initial guess. First of all, in the early stage, the logistic curve follows an exponential growth curve (3) , so the estimation of K is practically impossible. With enough data, the initial guess can be obtain in the following way. Expressing t from (2) and use three equidistant data point yield the following system of three equations:\nThis system has a solution [7] \nThe solution is acceptable when all the unknowns are positive.\nFormulas (10),(11),(12) are used to calculate the initial approximation in the fitVirus program. For practical calculation, we take the first, the middle, and the last data point. If this calculation fails, we consider regression analysis as questionable. Final .
