Home > iHEA Webinar: Integrating Economic and Epidemiological Objectives in the Optimal Response to Pandemics

The Immunization Economics Special Interest Group (SIG) will organize a webinar that centers on current research relevant to the immunization economics community of practice. The presenter will discuss the ongoing modeling work supporting WHO and policymakers in middle-income countries in mitigating the pandemic as vaccination coverage is slowly scaled up. The focus of the presentation is on DAEDALUS, the model underlying this advisory work. DAEDALUS integrates a dynamic epidemiological model of SARS-CoV-2 transmission with a 63-sector economic model reflecting sectoral heterogeneity in transmission and interconnected supply chains between sectors.
