Challenges in estimating the impact of vaccination with sparse data

2018-04-27

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> <h4>Background</h4> The synthetic control (SC) model is a powerful tool to quantify the population-level impact of vaccines, because it can adjust for trends unrelated to vaccination using a composite of control diseases. Because vaccine impact studies are often conducted using smaller subnational datasets, we evaluated the performance of SC models with sparse time series data. To obtain more r...
