Table 4.

Description of the principle background for the calculation of crude cost and cost-efficiency by scenario.

Cost calculation
Scenario Cost composition Calculation basis 2012 Calculation basis 2013 Calculation basis 2014 Calculation 2015 onward
1 Post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) Number of recommended PEP registered June to December 12, extrapolated to 12 months Number of recommended PEP registered June to December 2012, extrapolated to 12 months Number of recommended PEP registered June to December 2012, extrapolated to 12 months Number of recommended PEP registered June to December 2012, extrapolated to 12 months

2 PEP and vaccination number of recommended PEP registered in 2012 number of recommended PEP registered in 2013 number of recommended PEP in 2014 mean number of recommended PEP registered in 2013 and 2014

Cost of vaccination campaign in 2012 Cost of vaccination campaign in 2013 Estimated yearly flat rate for reintroduction control and small scale emergency vaccination Estimated yearly flat rate for reintroduction control and small scale emergency vaccination

3 PEP and vaccination Sum of high risk exposures and 30% of moderate risk exposures registered June to December 2012, extrapolated to 12 months Full cost for Essen 5 doses PEP for sum of high risk exposures and cost of three doses for 30% of moderate risk exposures registered in 2013 Full cost for Essen 5 doses PEP for sum of high risk exposures and cost of three doses for 30% of moderate risk exposures registered in 2014 Full cost of PEP for mean number of high risk exposures and cost for three doses for 30% of moderate risk exposures registered in 2013 and 2014

Cost-effectiveness calculation

Scenario Calculation of exposures averted Calculation of disability-adjusted life years (DALY) averted Cumulative cost after 20 years DALY averted after 20 years Cost per DALY averted over 20 years

1 Number of recommended PEP with high and moderate exposure risk background registered in 2012 and extrapolated to the following years 19% of number of exposures averted multiplied with years of life lost (YLL) according to different age classes 388,515,250 FCFA/770,038 USD 6,372 60,971 FCFA/121 USD

2 Difference of extrapolated number of high and moderate risk exposure cases registered in 2012 and effective exposures (100% of high risk and 70% of moderate risk) registered in 2013 and 2014 19% of number of exposures averted multiplied with YLL according to different age classes 349,001,170 FCFA/691,721 USD 9,055 38,544 FCFA/76 USD

3 Difference of extrapolated number of high and moderate risk exposure cases registered in 2012 and effective exposures (only high risk) registered in 2013 and 2014 19% of number of exposures averted multiplied with YLL according to different age classes 287,226,252 FCFA/569,283 USD 9,055 31,721 FCFA/63 USD

For all costs, a discount rate of 4% was applied.
