    Snippet: This approximation implies that a between-host selective advantage is required for a long-term infection to be capable of evolutionary emergence (confirmed by exact calculations in Fig 2C) . When viral dynamics are dominated by the saturated phase at fixed K, a within-host selective advantage has little impact on the average viral load during the infectious period of an individual solely infected with the mutant strain and, consequently, provides.....
    Document: This approximation implies that a between-host selective advantage is required for a long-term infection to be capable of evolutionary emergence (confirmed by exact calculations in Fig 2C) . When viral dynamics are dominated by the saturated phase at fixed K, a within-host selective advantage has little impact on the average viral load during the infectious period of an individual solely infected with the mutant strain and, consequently, provides a minimal increase in the mutant reproductive number.
