Abstract

The outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has brought severe challenges to global economic development and government management. According to a report on the United Nations News website (news. un. org), as of May 3, 2023, the cumulative number of confirmed cases of COVID-19 worldwide has reached 765 million, and more than 6 million people have lost their lives as a result. How to evaluate the effect of government management has become a key issue. In this research, the SEIR model is used to estimate the network average degree of Chinese cities under network limitation. The results show that government management has reduced the average degree of the COVID-19 network and the prevention of first-tier cities will be more difficult. This study scientifically evaluates the government management of the epidemic and provides ideas for emergency management of infectious diseases that affect the public.
