Estimating the historical impact of outbreak response immunisation programmes across 210 outbreaks in low and middle-income countries
BACKGROUND: Outbreaks of vaccine-preventable diseases frequently occur in low and middle-income countries (LMICs), requiring outbreak response immunisation (ORI) programmes for containment. To inform future investment decisions, this study aimed to estimate the cases, deaths, disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) and societal economic costs averted by past ORI programmes. Outbreaks of measles, Ebola, yellow fever, cholera and meningococcal menin…
Covid-19 outbreaks in residential aged care facilities
Introduction: A disproportionate number of COVID-19 deaths occur in Residential Aged Care Facilities (RACFs), where better evidence is needed to target COVID-19 interventions to prevent mortality. This study used an agent-based model to assess the role of community prevalence, vaccination strategies, and non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs) on COVID-19 outcomes in RACFs in Victoria, Australia. Methods: The model simulated outbreaks in RACFs ov…
Keeping kids in school
Background: In 2021, the Australian Government Department of Health commissioned a consortium of modelling groups to generate evidence assisting the transition from a goal of no community COVID-19 transmission to 'living with COVID-19', with adverse health and social consequences limited by vaccination and other measures. Due to the extended school closures over 2020-21, maximizing face-to-face teaching was a major objective during this transitio…
Health and economic benefits of achieving contraceptive and maternal health targets in Small Island Developing States in the Pacific and Caribbean
INTRODUCTION: Reducing unmet need for modern contraception and expanding access to quality maternal health (MH) services are priorities for improving women's health and economic empowerment. To support investment decisions, we estimated the additional cost and expected health and economic benefits of achieving the United Nations targets of zero unmet need for modern contraceptive choices and 95% coverage of MH services by 2030 in select Small Isl…
Covid-19 epidemic modelling for policy decision support in Victoria, Australia 2020–2021
Model evidence offered the greatest value when decisions needed to be made pre-emptively, or for questions that could not be answered with empiric data and data analysis alone. Co-designing scenarios with policy-makers ensured relevance and increased policy translation
Cost optimisation analysis of the expanded programme for immunisation
INTRODUCTION: With limited resources, attaining maximal average health service coverage can be at odds with maximising equity which attempts to promote greater reach among underserved populations. In this study, we examined the trade-offs in immunisation coverage levels and equity for children under 5 years of age in Pakistan across various subpopulations who can be targeted with different combinations of immunisation service modalities. METHODS:…
