In early spring 2020, Covid-19 was categorized as a pandemic and has since infected several millions of people in many countries and claimed hundreds of thousands of lives Various strict strategies and prevention measures, such as curfews and lockdowns of cities or entire countries, have been enforced by governments to mitigate the spread of the virus While the results of the aforementioned enforced measures deemed promising for some countries, the same could not be said about others This paper serves as an initial analysis of the effect of government enforced strategies and safety measures on the transmission of Covid-19 We propose a three-stage periodic model: The rise stage, plateau stage, and decline stage, to describe the changes of the spread of Covid-19 The results show a positive and constructive answer to our proposed three-stage model © 2020 ACM
