Mathematical model of the feedback between global supply chain disruption and COVID-19 dynamics

Abstract The pandemic of COVID-19 has become one of the greatest threats to human health, causing severe disruptions in the global supply chain, and compromising health care delivery worldwide. Although government authorities sought to contain the spread of SARS-CoV-2, by restricting travel and in-p...
