Cost-effectiveness of sub-national geographically targeted vaccination programs: A systematic review
Vaccine. 2023 Feb 11:S0264-410X(23)00132-9. doi: 10.1016/j.vaccine.2023.02.006. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTImmunization is an essential component of national health plans. However, the growing number of new vaccine introductions, vaccination campaigns and increasing administrative costs create logistic and financial challenges, especially in resource-limited settings. Sub-national geographic targeting of vaccination programs is a potential strategy for governments to reduce the impact of infectious disease outbreaks while optimizing resource allocation and reducing costs, promoting sustainability of critically important...

Supply and delivery of vaccines for global health
Curr Opin Immunol. 2021 Apr 9;71:13-20. doi: 10.1016/j.coi.2021.03.009. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTVaccines developed in high-income countries have been enormously successful in reducing the global burden of infectious diseases, saving perhaps 2.5 million lives per year, but even for successful cases, like the rotavirus vaccine, global implementation may take a decade or more. For unincentivized vaccines, the delays are even more profound, as both the supply of a vaccine from developing country manufacturers and vaccine demand from countries with the high disease burdens have to be generated in order for impact to be ma...
