Objectives
We aim to (a) assess the driving factors (intrinsic and extrinsic/seasonal) of the transmissibility of COVID-19 and influenza, (b) infer the dynamics of cocirculation and coexistence of seasonal influenza and COVID-19 during post-pandemic period , and (c) quantify the associated impact and propose better intervention/vaccination strategies.
