A Prototype QSP Model of the Immune Response to SARS-COV-2 for Community Development

The model mechanistically accounts for the influence of key mediators relevant to COVID-19 pathophysiology including, interactions between viral dynamics, the major host immune response mediators, and alveolar tissue damage and regeneration.
