Update model - Virology parameters
After the discussion an input from Dr. Julian Tang (recording here: https://cern.zoom.us/rec/share/XcUMSMKuGCeYTll40H_kxkdiwmqSidqNs0iILsnr37qNHMvccXlKK0iw78_g0NCF.AaSPDKTG_KsIUAZw / Access Passcode: w2SxbE!R) there are several improvement points in the model to take into account.
Dr Tang also provided a lot of material in a presentation: https://cernbox.cern.ch/index.php/s/Iqlfl53rQkyM2cj
Here is the task list for the necessary updates:
-
swap the qID parameter from the (ER or qR) to the P(I) formula - slide 4 here: Exp_model_-_Wells_Riely.pptx -
Not needed anymore - Add aerosolized virus factor into the exposure model - see #175 (closed) -
Add an 'aerosolized RNA copy to infectious virus' factor in the concentration model -
Improve the gravitational deposition factor (currently it is a constant value) -
Improve the inward efficiency of masks, currently it is a constant value. (see code line 393 in https://www.overleaf.com/project/610a4b3a3e14b2249a6940a0 ) -
Improve the viral deposition factor (see code line 404 in https://www.overleaf.com/project/610a4b3a3e14b2249a6940a0 ) -
Add the effect of vaccination in the model - still to be decided
