The SEIR model prototype is generally considered generic and unable to capture the unique nature of a novel viral pandemic, such as COVID-19. With that in mind, researchers at Smart Dubai and MBRU developed and tested a specialised version of the SEIR model, called SEAHIR (Susceptible-Exposed-Asymptomatic-Hospitalised-Isolated-Removed) model, which was better able to capture the unique dynamics of the COVID-19 outbreak.
