ABSTRACT
To investigate the influence of human behavior on the spread of COVID-19, we propose a reaction-diffusion model that incorporates contact rate functions related to human behavior. The basic reproduction number R0 is derived and a threshold-type result on its global dynamics in terms of R0 is established. More precisely, we show that the disease-free equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable if R0≤1; while there exists a positive stationary solution and the disease is uniformly persistent if R0>1. By the numerical simulations of the analytic results, we find that human behavior changes may lower infection levels and reduce the number of exposed and infected humans.
ABSTRACT
Vaccines are urgently needed to control the COVID-19 pandemic. To gradually increase the vaccination rate among residents, temporary vaccination clinic for COVID-19 plays an important role. It should be located in an area with convenient transportation and concentrated population. Functional zones including waiting and inquiry, registration and notification, injection, observation and emergency room should be established. All vaccine recipients' information should be uploaded to the national immunization information system. Medical staff at the temporary vaccination clinic should be professionally trained. A cautious disinfection and wiping are essential for the temporary vaccination clinic.
