This article presents a mathematical model of the COVID-19 transmission mechanism, considering therapeutic interventions like immunization and recovery or treatment. The model shows that the disease-free and endemic equilibriums are globally asymptotically stable when effective reproduction numbers are less than or larger than unity. The critical vaccination threshold
depends on the vaccine’s ability to prevent or cure the illness. The model predicts the effectiveness of vaccination based on factors like vaccination efficiency, scheduling, and relaxation of social measures. The subsiding of the epidemic as vaccination is implemented depends on the scale of relaxation of social measures.
