Table 5 Expected value of the random variables used by the SM.

From: The effect of random virus failure following cell entry on infection outcome and the success of antiviral therapy

Random variable

Expected value

\(E_i^\text {out}\)

\(E_i^t \cdot \Delta tn_E/\tau _E\) where \(i=1,2,...,n_E\)

\(I_j^\text {out}\)

\(I_j^t \cdot \Delta tn_I/\tau _I\) where \(j=1,2,...,n_I\)

\(V^\text {prod}\)

\(\Delta t\cdot p\,\sum _{j=1}^{n_I} I_j^t\)

\(V^\text {decay},V^\text {enter},\text {otherwise}\)

\(V^t \cdot \Delta tc,V^t \cdot \Delta t\beta T^t/s, V^t \cdot (1-\Delta tc-\Delta t\beta T^t/s)\)

\(N^\text {inf}\)

\(T^t\big [1-[(T^t-1)/T^t]^{V^\text {suc}} \big ]\) for \(T^t \ge 1\) and 0 for \(T^t < 1\)

where the expected value of \(V^\text {suc}\) is \(V^{\text {enter}} \cdot \gamma\)
