Abstract
This study presents a novel application of Non -Standard Finite Difference (NSFD) Method to solve a COVID-19 epidemic mathematical model with the impact of fear due to infection. The mathematical model is governed by a system of first-order non-linear ordinary differential equations and is shown to possess a unique positive solution that is bounded. The proposed numerical scheme is used to obtain an approximate solution for the COVID-19 model. Graphical results were displayed to show that the solution obtained by NSFD agrees well with those obtained by the Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg method built-in Maple 18.
