Variables | Cases of IPD due to vaccine serotypes | Deaths | Life years | QALYs |
Without high risk vaccination and without herd protection benefits of 13 valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine* | 7522 | 1895 | 34 251 | 36 579 |
Cases prevented by herd effects of infant 13 valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine programme† | 6189 | 1538 | 28 397 | 30 382 |
Without high risk vaccination and with herd effects of additional six serotypes in 13 valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine | 1333 | 357 | 5854 | 6197 |
With high risk group vaccination (including herd effects of infant programme)‡ | 927 | 247 | 4033 | 4274 |
Averted burden by high risk vaccination (incremental effects)§ | 406 | 110 | 1821 | 1923 |
QALYs=quality adjusted life years.
*Only including herd effect due to serotypes included in seven valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (excluding herd effect due to six additional serotypes included in 13 valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine.
†Herd effects due to additional six serotypes in 13 valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine based on incidence after vaccination with seven valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (see methods and appendix 2 in supplementary file).
‡Vaccination uptake to be assumed similar to that of annual influenza uptake (see methods).
