Rather than thinking only about saving the most lives when considering vaccine rationing strategies, a better approach would be to maximize individuals’ life span and
- pportunity to reach life goals.
Who Should Get Influenza Vaccine When Not All Can?

T
he potential threat of pandemic influenza is staggering: 1.9 million deaths, 90 mil- lion people sick, and nearly 10 million people hospitalized, with almost 1.5 million production is just 425 million doses per annum, if all available factories would run at full capac- ity after a vaccine was developed. Under cur- rently existing capabilities for manufacturing beds despite the presentation of another patient who is equally or even more sick; “Save the most quality life years” is central to cost-effec- tiveness rationing. “Save the worst-off ”

- Should value people “on the basis of the amount the person
invested in his or her life balanced by the amount left to live.”
- Then vaccinate the most-valued people!
- Misses epidemiology: Transmission, Case mortality, Vaccine
efficacy

R0
- R0 = 1.4 for Swine Flu (Fraser et al, Science, 2009)
- R0 = 2.0 for 1918 Pandemic (Mills et al, Nature, 2004)
- We considered R0 = 1.4 and also R0 = 1.2, 1.6, 1.8, 2.0

Outcome Measures
Map outcome (number infected, dead, etc) to objective
- Total Infections
- Total Deaths
- Years of Life Lost: Using expectation of life (NCHS, US Life Tables, 2003)
- Contingent Valuation: Indirect assessment of value of lives of
different ages
- Total Cost: Converts deaths, infections, etc into dollars
Introduction Model Outcome Measures Results Conclusions
Contingent Valuation
- Survey asked about
20, 30, 40, 60 year
- lds and fit
va = aω−1 exp (−ψaω)
(Cropper et al, J Risk Uncertain, 1994)
- Alternative:
wage–risk market data, but only for working-aged adults
Relative disutility of death Age (years) 0.0 0.2 0.4 0.6 0.8 1.0 20 40 60 80
Introduction Model Outcome Measures Results Conclusions
Total Cost
- Monetary cost of
illness (Meltzer, Cox, &
Fukuda, Emerg Infect Dis, 1999)
- Monetary cost of
death
- Future lifetime
earnings (Haddix et
al, 1996)
- Alternatives:
Include value of non-work time

Conclusions
- 65M doses prevents an R0 = 1.4 epidemic
- 135M doses prevents an R0 = 2.0 epidemic
- Can improve vaccination policies
- Infections: Vaccinate transmitters, children (5–19) & parents
(30–39)
- Deaths, YLL, Contingent, & Cost:
- When vaccine limited, vaccinate those at risk of death
- When vaccine plentiful, vaccinate transmitters
- Transition varies between outcome measures
- Deaths averted transitions last
