| Abstract: |
| We study a viral model coupling cell-free and cell-to-cell transmissions. The joint effect of direct and indirect infection mechanisms will be investigated via analysis of viral dynamics. Especially, we will calculate the basic reproduction number and compare it with the basic reproduction numbers for uncoupled models with only one type of infection mechanism. Local and global stability analysis of the infection-free equilibrium as well as positive equilibrium will also be provided. |
