Comparative Reconstruction of SARS-CoV-2 transmission in three African countries using a mathematical model integrating immunity data

2023-07-08

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> <h4>Objectives</h4> Africa has experienced fewer coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) cases and deaths than other regions, with a contrasting epidemiological situation between countries, raising questions regarding the determinants of disease spread in Africa. <h4>Method</h4> We built a susceptible–exposed–infected–recovered model including COVID-19 mortality data where recovery class is structure...
