Deriving effective vaccine allocation strategies for pandemic influenza: Comparison of an agent-based simulation and a compartmental model
Individuals are prioritized based on their risk profiles when allocating limited vaccine stocks during an influenza pandemic. Computationally expensive but realistic agent-based simulations and fast but stylized compartmental models are typically used to derive effective vaccine allocation strategies. A detailed comparison of these two approaches, however, is often omitted. We derive age-specif...
متن کاملTwo resource distribution strategies for dynamic mitigation of influenza pandemics
As recently pointed out by the Institute of Medicine, the existing pandemic containment and mitigation models lack the dynamic decision support capabilities. We present two simulation-based optimization models for developing dynamic predictive resource distribution strategies for cross-regional pandemic outbreaks. In both models, the underlying simulation mimics the disease and population dynam...
متن کاملClinical review: Considerations for the triage of maternity care during an influenza pandemic - one institution's approach
The ongoing pandemic of 2009 H1N1 swine-origin influenza A has heightened the world's attention to the reality of influenza pandemics and their unpredictable nature. Currently, the 2009 H1N1 influenza strain appears to cause mild clinical disease for the majority of those infected. However, the risk of severe disease from this strain or other future strains remains an ongoing concern and is not...
متن کاملEpidemiology of the 2009 Pandemic Influenza A (H1N1)
The pandemic influenza A (H1N1) virus (pH1N1) spread quickly throughout the world following the April 2009 outbreak in Mexico, and it was the first major influenza pandemic since 1969. In order to effectively prepare for and respond to future pandemics, it is crucial to fully understand the characteristics of the 2009 outbreak. The objective of this review is to focus on the salient epidemiolog...
متن کاملUsing MODEA and MODM with Different Risk Measures for Portfolio Optimization
The purpose of this study is to develop portfolio optimization and assets allocation using our proposed models. The study is based on a non-parametric efficiency analysis tool, namely Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). Conventional DEA models assume non-negative data for inputs and outputs. However, many of these data take the negative value, therefore we propose the MeanSharp-βRisk (MShβR) model...
