Corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an infectious disease with Acute Intense Respiratory Syndrome Corona Virus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), and the World Health Organization (WHO) has proclaimed Covid-19 as a pandemic. The virus can spread quickly through close contact and via respiratory droplets induced when people cough or sneeze. The respective officials have promoted social Distancing, and governing bodies as a precautionary measure to prevent this novel disease as social contacts between people have a solid assortative structure in age. A mathematical model is used to predict the transmission of the disease, including age and social contact structure. In the research paper, a SIR Model of the spread of the corona virus that considers both the age and social contact structure has been explored. The bangs of Covid-19 on different age groups were highlighted for special attention to prevent the transmission of the disease.
