When COVID-19 first appeared, there were restrictions imposed by the governments around the world. The total number of cases at any given point of time in the first wave of spread of the disease was sub-exponential. In the second wave, the spread pattern was seen to be hyper- exponential. Currently, the COVID protocols have been loosened. Thereafter the number of new cases has been observed to plummet on weekends in certain regions that include the United States.
