摘要

In this research, we have derived a mathematical model for within human dynamics of COVID-19 infection using delay differential equations. The new model considers a ’latent period’ and ’the time for immune response’ as delay parameters, allowing us to study the effects of time delays in human COVID-19 infection. We have determined the equilibrium points and analyzed their stability. The disease-free equilibrium is stable when the basic reproduction number, \(R_0\) R 0 , is below unity. Stability switch of the endemic equilibrium occurs through Hopf-bifurcation. This study shows that the effect of latent delay is stabilizing whereas immune response delay has a destabilizing nature.
