- 25 May 2006
TL;DR: Assessment of coverage and reasons for non-vaccination for three of vaccination programmes recommended by the National Board of Health and Welfare found a clear lack of knowledge among target groups and found that the most important channel to inform parents is via health-care staff.
Optimal control strategies of multistrain infectious disease with limited vaccination and treatment capacity
TL;DR: This study develops optimal control strategies for multistrain infectious diseases with limited vaccination and treatment capacity, using the SVEIR model to analyze the impact of interventions on disease dynamics and public health outcomes.
