Round 1

Reviewer 1 Report

Materials and Methods

Lines 152-153: What is the program did you use to built 3D model? Please, mention the program.

Line 172: The sentence: “This result was obtained by scaling and simply summing up the deposition...”. Is this Figure 3 a result? This information is not clear, I suggest rewrites that in a sentence.

 

Discussion

There is not a discussion about the results with previous studies. Please, explain better this section.

Parts of conclusions could be better here, I suggest reorganized it (lines 424-439).

 

Conclusions

Lines 447-452: This model was made with patients no vaccinated, probably these results could be modified with vaccinated people? A sentence explaining this information is importante here.
