Cost-effectiveness of live-attenuated influenza vaccination among school-age children.

TL;DR: Economic evaluations comparing the influenza vaccination program from 1995-2013 to seven alternative strategies targeted at low risk individuals along the school age divisions Preschool, Primary school, and Secondary school find vaccinating Primary School children was the most cost-efficient strategy compared incrementally against others.
Journal ArticleDOI

A pathway EM-algorithm for estimating vaccine efficacy with a non-monotone validation set

TL;DR: This work considers time‐to‐event data where individuals can experience two or more types of events that are not distinguishable from one another without further confirmation, and proposes two novel methods to estimate covariate effects in this survival setting, and subsequently vaccine efficacy.
Book ChapterDOI

Modes of Action and Time-Varying VE S

TL;DR: The vaccine fails to elicit a protective immune response in 10% of the vaccinated people, which means that the vaccine reduces the probability of contracting the infection or disease by 0.90 at each exposure to infection.

Inverse Probability Weighted Estimators of Vaccine Effects Accommodating Partial Interference and Censoring

TL;DR: This paper considers an extension of the Tchetgen Tchet Gen and VanderWeele IPW estimator to the setting where the outcome is subject to right censoring using inverse probability of censoring weights (IPCW).
Journal ArticleDOI

On influenza and school closings: time for prospective studies.
