An optimal control model for COVID‐19, zika, dengue, and chikungunya co‐dynamics with reinfection

Optimal control applications & methods, 2022
The co‐circulation of different emerging viral diseases is a big challenge from an epidemiological point of view. The similarity of symptoms, cases of virus co‐infection, and cross‐reaction can mislead in the diagnosis of the disease.
