Fig. 2. Overall effects and direct effects of three RSV prevention strategies in infants under 1 year of age.

Fig. 2

The model-predicted RSV hospitalizations per 100,000 people by age is plotted for: A maternal immunization, B extended half-life monoclonal antibodies, and C live-attenuated vaccines. The green lines show the mean RSV hospitalization incidence by age (on the x-axis) assuming no vaccination. The orange lines show the model-predicted RSV hospitalization incidence by age in Year 7 following introduction of the intervention accounting only for the direct effects of RSV prevention strategies (i.e. assuming no reduction in RSV transmission). The purple lines show the model-predicted RSV hospitalization incidence by age in Year 7 accounting for the overall effects of the RSV prevention strategies, which include both the direct and indirect effects among the vaccinated age groups and the indirect effects among the unvaccinated age groups. The color shadows show the 95% prediction intervals for the different scenarios as indicated by the legend.
