COVID-19 CASES IN MOROCCO: A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS

Abstract

Covid-19 is a highly infectious disease caused by novel Corona virus SARS-CoV-2, affecting the whole world. In this
paper, we introduce and apply two iterative methods, RMsDTM and R2KM, to obtain approximate values of Covid-19
cases in Morocco. We also compare the approximations of both methods and see that the solution of RMsDTM is
more accurate.

Keywords

• Morocco
• Covid-19
