ABSTRACT
A mathematical model is presented in this paper to investigate the effects of time delay in vaccine production on COVID-19 spread. The model is analyzed qualitatively and numerically. The qualitative analysis indicates that the system variables are non-negative, bounded, and biologically meaningful. Moreover, the model has produced two equilibrium points the free equilibrium point, which can exist without conditions, and the endemic equilibrium point, which can exist if the control reproduction number, [Formula see text], is not less than one. In addition, the local stability of the equilibrium points is investigated and agrees with the numerical analysis results. Finally, a sensitivity analysis is conducted for [Formula see text]. In particular, we examine the effect of the vaccine's time delay, vaccine rate, and vaccine efficiency on the model dynamics.
