Effectiveness and Cost-Effectiveness of Expanded Antiviral Prophylaxis and Adjuvanted Vaccination Strategies for an Influenza A (H5N1) Pandemic
Annals of Internal Medicine, 10/13/09
Khazeni N et al. – This decision model for pandemic planning suggests that stockpiling sufficient adjuvanted vaccine for immunizing 40% of the population is more effective and cost–effective than immunizing a smaller proportion of the population or providing them with antiviral drugs. The model makes several assumptions that may not bear out in a real H5N1 pandemic. However, users can test their own assumptions with a model provided by the authors.
