THE IMPORTANCE OF PROVEN TREATMENT AS A VACCINE MODEL FOR COVID-19

초록

. The COVID-19 global pandemic has posed the biggest medical challenge of the past three years, and efforts to eradicate it have involved cross-border collaborations. Recent studies claim that the development and distribution of vaccines is an effective approach to end this infectious disease. However, this study demonstrates that a vaccine alone may not be enough due to differences in the rates of waning immunity induced by infection and vaccination. We propose that both vaccination and treatment are required to halt COVID-19 disease transmission and end the pandemic. From an epidemiological perspective, we employ the SVEIRS model by introducing vaccination and treatment into the compartmental epidemic The experimental results suggest that the pandemic can be ended by performing both vaccination and treatment. However, the development and distribution of vaccines and treatments take time, and control measures must continue until the disease is completely eradicated.
