Parameters | Description |
---|---|
r | The rate at which the \(CD^{+}_{4} \) T-cells are reproduced. |
m | Maximum value of \(CD^{+}_{4} \) T-cells in the absence of the virus. |
\(\beta _{1} \) | The rate at which the virus infects the \(CD^{+}_{4} \) T-cells. |
\(\beta _{2} \) | The rate at which the \(CD^{+}_{4} \) T-cells are infected by the infected cells. |
α | The rate at which the viruses are saturated. |
ρ | The cure rate of the infected \(CD^{+}_{4} \) T-cells that reverted to the uninfected T-cells. |

δ | The death rate of the infected \(CD^{+}_{4} \) T-cells. |
\(\rho _{1} \) | The rate at which the T-cells kill the infected \(CD^{+}_{4} \) T-cells. |
n | Number of viruses produced by the infected \(CD^{+}_{4} \) T-cells. |
μ | The death rate of the viruses. |
\(\rho _{2} \) | The rate at which the B-cells kill the viruses. |
\(c_{1} \) | The rate at which the presence of the infected T-cells activates the T-cells. |
\(b_{1} \) | The death rate of the T-cells. |
\(c_{2} \) | The rate at which the presence of the virus activates the B-cells. |
\(b_{2} \) | The death rate of the B-cells. |
