Abstract

For a viral infection model with multitarget cells, nonlinear incidence rate, state-dependent removal rate and distributed delays, we analyze the global asymptotic behavior of its solutions. In this model, the rate of contact between viruses and uninfected target cells and state-dependent removal rate of infected cells depend on general nonlinear functions. The basic reproduction number for the model is discussed. Under certain assumptions, it is shown that if \(\Re_0\leq 1\), then the infection-free equilibrium \(P_0\) is globally stable and the viruses are cleared; If \(\Re_0 > 1\), then there is a unique infection equilibrium, which is globally stable implying the infection becomes chronic. The global stability results are achieved by appealing to the direct Lyapunov method.
