1. Abbreviations for modeled interventions: V (vaccination of up to 70% of the population), L (low efficacy), M (moderate efficacy), A (antiviral treatment and household prophylaxis of up to 10% of the population), S (school closure and social distancing).

2. Initial supply-chain delays which prevent immediate initiation of vaccination programs after the intervention trigger occurs.

3. Additional supply-chain delays, after initiation of the vaccination program, as a result of which vaccines become available in three equal batches, spaced two weeks apart
