Table 2.

Initial values for the population of frontliners and the general public

State variables Description Initial value
Set 1 Set 2
S1 Number of susceptible from the general public 10,000 100,000
S2 Number of susceptible frontliners 100 1000
E1 Number of exposed from the general public 0 0
E2 Number of exposed frontliners 10 100
I1 Number of infected from the general public 1 10
I2 Number of infected frontliners 0 0
Is1 Number of isolated infected from the general public 0 0
Is2 Number of isolated infected frontliners 0 0
R1 Number of recovered from the general public 0 0
R2 Number of recovered frontliners 0 0

To identify the effect on the dynamics of the initial value, we consider two sets of initial values for susceptible, exposed, infected, and recovered for the general public and the frontliners
