In this talk, I will present a mathematical model to explore the influence of quarantine and latent period on the spatial spread of COVID-19. We use the mathematical model with quarantine and delay to predict the spreading speed of the virus. In particular, we transform the model to a single integral equation and then apply the Laplace transform to find implicit equations for the spreading speeds. The basic reproduction number of COVID-19 is also found and calculated. Numerical simulations are performed to confirm our theoretical results.
