To capture more complexities associated to the spread of Covid-19 within a given population, we considered a system to nine differential equations that include a class of susceptible, 5 sub-classes of infected population, recovered, death and vaccine. The mathematical model was suggested with a lockdown function such that after the lockdown, the function follows a fading memory rate, a concept that is justified by the effect of social distancing that suggests, susceptible class should stay away from infected objects and humans. We presented a detailed analysis that includes reproductive number and stability analysis. Also, we introduced the concept of fractional Lyapunov function for Caputo, Caputo-Fabrizio and the Atangana-Baleanu fractional derivatives. We established the sign of the fractional Lyapunov function in all cases, additionally we proved that, if the fractional order is one, we recover the results for the model with classical differential operators. With the nonlinearity of the differential equations depicting the complexities of the Covid-19 spread especially the cases with nonlocal operators, and due to the failure of existing analytical methods to provide exact solution to the system, we employed the newly introduced numerical method based on the Newton polynomial to derive numerical solutions for all cases and numerical simulations are provided for different values of fractional orders and fractal dimensions. Collected data from Turkey case for a period of 90 days were compared with the suggested mathematical model with Atangana-Baleanu fractional derivative and a agreement was reached for alpha 1.009 .
