Seasonal Influenza Vaccine Allocation in the Canadian Population during a Pandemic ΠPLOS Currents Influenza
Introduction: Emerging data suggest that receipt of the seasonal influenza vaccine may be associated with an enhanced risk of infection with pandemic (H1N1) 2009 (pH1N1). We sought to evaluate different seasonal vaccination strategies during a pandemic in the presence of varying levels of pH1N1 infection risk following seasonal influenza vaccine receipt. Methods: We developed a deterministic, a...
متن کاملDynamic multi-agent task allocation with spatial and temporal constraints
Realistic multi-agent team applications often feature dynamic environments with soft deadlines that penalize late execution of tasks. This puts a premium on quickly allocating tasks to agents, but finding the optimal allocation is NP-hard due to temporal and spatial constraints that require tasks to be executed sequentially by agents. We propose FMC TA, a novel task allocation algorithm that al...
متن کاملOptimizing phylogenetic diversity under constraints.
Phylogenetic diversity (PD) is a measure of the extent to which different subsets of taxa span an evolutionary tree, and provides a quantitative tool for studying biodiversity conservation. Recently, it was shown that the problem of finding subsets of taxa of given size to maximize PD can be efficiently solved by a greedy algorithm. In this paper, we extend this earlier work, beginning with a m...
متن کاملSeasonal influenza and vaccine herd effect
The seasonal influenza vaccine programs in many regions aimed to protect most vulnerable population, but current trivalent influenza vaccine does not provide sufficient effectiveness among people under high risk for severe outcome of the influenza. The vaccine herd effect (VHE) is the extra protection of non-immune high risk persons, with increase of immunity among vaccinated healthier persons ...
متن کاملHow to increase seasonal influenza vaccine coverage.
To the Editor: The recent report on “increase seasonal influenza vaccine coverage” is very interesting.1 Michel1 reported on the success in a focused group of nursing home residents. In fact, the coverage of influenza vaccine among nursing home residents is usually problematic. Shroufi et al2 recently reported that only 30% of studied nursing homes had a policy addressing influenza vaccination ...
