Decisive Conditions for Strategic Vaccination against SARS-CoV-2

Abstract: While vaccines that protect against SARS-CoV-2 are being approved, the number of available doses remains limited. As it may take months until the production of vaccines can meet the actual demand, the majority of available SARS-CoV-2 vaccines elicits strong immune responses when administered as prime-boost regimens. Since the immunological response to the first ('prime') injection may provide already a substantial degree of protection against infection, it may be more effective---under certain conditions---to … Show more

“…Furthermore, we assume that only susceptible persons will be vaccinated. Other mechanisms such as prime-boost protocols and time delays between vaccination and onset of immune response can also be accounted for in similar models as detailed in [45].…”

“…This means that vaccinated individuals will no longer be infectious and can be treated as "recovered" after receiving one vaccination dose. Other mechanisms such as prime-boost protocols and time delays between vaccination and onset of immune response can also be accounted for in similar models as detailed in [40].…”

“…The evolution of resistance of SARS-COV2 against vaccination or existing treatments as well as enhanced transmissibility or lethality is a major concern, which has given rise to an impressive number of studies [12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27] that have been founded on a long history of modelling the emergence of resistance against treatment in other viruses [28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36] and epidemiological models for disease spread 18,19,37,38 .…”
