An epidemic model integrating direct and fomite transmission as well as household structure applied to COVID-19

Abstract This paper stresses its base contribution on a new SIR-type model including direct and fomite transmission as well as the effect of distinct household structures. The model derivation is modulated by several mechanistic processes inherent from typical airborne diseases. The notion of minimu...
