Optimal Allocation of Vaccine and Antiviral Drugs for Influenza Containment over Delayed Multiscale Epidemic Model considering Time-Dependent Transmission Rate

Algorithm 1

General strategy algorithm.
Step1. Optimal control design (vaccination strategy) for within-host model to convert healthy cells to resistant-to-infection cells in the optimal time .
Step2. Optimal control design (antiviral treatment strategy) for within-host model to convert healthy cells to resistant-to-infection cells at the same time as destroying the virus particles in the optimal time .
Step3. Optimal control design for between-hosts model to eradicate the infection, considering delays in the community.
