The alarming conditions arising in this world due to the surveillance of COVID-19 have been a threat to the human beings. Mathematics has been widely employed to obtain a comprehensive understanding of the transmission dynamics and regulation of such a disease. This article explores the dynamical and asymmetrical behaviors of the recent pandemic COVID-19 transmission using a mathematical model. The local and global stabilities of equilibrium points of the system are examined based on the basic reproduction number R0. Jacobian matrices and the Routh-Hurwitz criterion are used to confirm the local stability of the equilibrium state. The findings of the simulations reveal that the transmission of COVID-19 can be symmetrically controlled by limiting the interaction rate of sick people and growing the quarantine of exposed people. Further, the model is solved using the Galerkin technique which demonstrated the impact of significant parameters entangled in the model on the population dynamics of state variables. Furthermore, the confirmed results are obtained through Galerkin scheme by solving the model using the well-known classical Runge-Kutta method. Finally, comparing the findings, it is found that the outcomes of both the schemes coincide in symmetric patterns, which in turn, demonstrated the viability of the suggested approaches.
