Abstract
This paper proposes a novel stochastic model to predict the COVID-19 outbreak in China, accounting for unique transmission dynamics and intervention measures. The model reveals a significant asymptomatic carrier population, differing infection rates between symptomatic and asymptomatic individuals, and a substantial reduction in transmission rates following control measures. The model predicted epidemic containment by early March in the studied regions.
