Fig. 4, panel (a)

Panel (a): modelled viral load ($\log_{10}$ copies/mL) against days after inoculation, from the Killingley et al. challenge-trial curve: mean (black) with 95% credible band (grey), the RT-PCR, FND and AuNP thresholds (horizontal dashed), and the mean day of detection (dashed) and the day 95% of patients are detected (solid) for FND (blue) and AuNP (green).
