A mathematical model for estimating the effectiveness of BCG-vaccination

Foi apresentado modelo que permite estimar o impacto primario de um programa de vacinacao com BCG intradermico, aplicado num determinado grupo etario, durante um certo periodo de tempo, que se segue a vacinacao. Alguns exemplos de aplicacao do mesmo foram mostrados, tendo sido assinalada a possibilidade de estimar antecipadamente a menor eficacia de vacina capaz de manter a relacao custo-beneficio maior do que um.
