Abstract
Some of the socio-economic issues encountered today are boosted by the prevalence of a gruesome pandemic. The spread of a rather complex disease—COVID-19—has resulted in a collapse of social life, health, economy and general well-being of man. The adverse effects of the pandemic have devastating consequences on the world and the only hope apart from a hypothetical cure for the disease would be measures to understand its propagation and bring in effective measures to control it. This paper surveys the role of Cellular Automata in modeling the spread of COVID-19. Possible solutions and perceptions regarding dynamics, trends, dependent factors, immunity, etc. have been addressed and elucidated for better understanding.
