Abstract

The study adopts a cutting edge  variant of the SEIR epidemiological model and made use of a mathematical software Geogebrato estimate the model. The findings of the  study indicates that the virus is not much a problem in Nigeria as it does not have the capacity of causing more death than usual and the  adoption of more nonpharmaceutical control measures in the country for a year will not significantly improve the welfare of Nigerians.
