\subsection{Bacterial attachment}
The change in the fraction of host cells with
attached bacteria
$a$ $h$ will only depend on the primary attachment rate $\Gamma_a$ and not secondary attachment
(ruffle recruitment) rate $\Gamma_b$, because for bacteria to be recruited by ruffles, a bacterium has already attached to form that ruffle.
Of course, this This rate of change will be limited by the bacterial
density, $\rho_B$. density $\rho_B$ and by the fraction of host cells without bacteria.
\begin{equation}
\dot{a} \dot{h} =
\frac{\dot{H}_a}{H} \frac{\dot{H}}{H_{\rm tot}} =
\frac{H \frac{H_{\rm tot} -
H_a}{H} H}{H_{\rm tot}} \Gamma_a \rho_B =
(1-a) (1-h) \Gamma_a (1-b) \frac{mc}{A}
\end{equation}
It is important to note that bacterial invasion/entry is not a consideration in the above equation. Consequently, if all the bacteria attached to a host cell have invaded, we still consider that host cell to have attached bacteria, even though it has no extracellular bacteria left.
