12 month hackathon, Scenario 2 ( Model extraction and simulation for SV2AIR3 full version)
Extend the model to incorporate multiple strains and 2 vaccine types, according to publication Fig. 1B and equations #2-12.
a. (TA 1 Model Extraction Workflow) Get the extended model by extracting it directly from the publication, and code at https://github.com/MehrshadSD/SARS-CoV-2-variants-of-concern-in-Ontario.
c. (TA3 Simulation Workflows/ Unit Tests) As in the paper, simulate the spread of Covid-19 in Ontario, over a 2 year period from January 1st, 2020 – December 31st, 2021, incorporating 2 vaccine types (Pfizer and AstraZeneca), and 3 Covid-19 variants/strains (including Wild Type, Alpha, and Delta, ignoring Omicron at the end of 2021). Set parameter values according to publication supplementary material. Use the 2019 population of Ontario, 14.57 million people. For initial conditions, assume the entire population was susceptible at the beginning of the simulation timeframe, except for 15 infected symptomatic individuals.
