vaxmodeller
Vaxmodeller is a software framework for simulating the spread of infectious diseases and the impact of vaccination interventions. It supports a range of modelling paradigms, including compartmental models such as SIR and SEIR, and can incorporate agent-based or metapopulation elements. The tool is designed to help researchers and public health planners compare vaccination strategies, coverage targets, timing, and logistics under varying assumptions. Outputs typically include cumulative and daily infections, hospitalizations, and deaths, and the framework can be extended to economic metrics such as cost-effectiveness.
The architecture of vaxmodeller is modular and configuration-driven, enabling users to define models through structured files
Common applications include comparative policy analysis, assessment of vaccination strategies such as target-group prioritization, school-based programs,
Development and ecosystem notes indicate that vaxmodeller is often released as an open-source project hosted on
Limitations include dependence on model structure and data quality; results are scenario-based and should be interpreted
