The novel coronavirus infectious disease (or COVID-19) almost spread widely around the world and causes a huge panic in the human population. To explore the complex dynamics of this novel infection, several mathematical epidemic models have been adopted and simulated using the statistical data of COVID-19 in various regions. In this paper, we present a new nonlinear fractional order model in the Caputo sense to analyze and simulate the dynamics of this viral disease with a case study of Algeria. Initially, after the model formulation, we utilize the well-known least square approach to estimate the model parameters from the reported COVID-19 cases in Algeria for a selected period of time. We perform the existence and uniqueness of the model solution which are proved via the Picard-Lindelof method. We further compute the basic reproduction numbers and equilibrium points, then we explore the local and global stability of both the disease-free equilibrium point and the endemic equilibrium point. Finally, numerical results and graphical simulation are given to demonstrate the impact of various model parameters and fractional order on the disease dynamics and control.
