contents The paper describes and compares three approaches to modeling an epidemic spread. The first approach is a well-known system of SIR ordinary differential equations. The second is a mean-field model, in which an isolation strategy for each epidemiological group (Susceptible, Infected, and Removed) is chosen as an optimal control. The third is another meanfield model, in which isolation strategy is common for the entire population. The considered models have been compared analytically, their sensitivity analysis has been carried out and their predictive capabilities have been estimated using sets of synthetic and real data. For one of the meanfield models, its finite-difference analogue has been devised. The models have also been assessed in terms of their applicability for predicting a viral epidemic spread.
