eMANDEVAL
Compare COVID-19 vaccine mandate designs on predicted public support, health outcomes and cost.
Comparing mandate designs is hard because public support, health benefit and cost move together, and differ across settings. A design defensible on epidemiology can be indefensible on acceptability, and the trade-off is rarely stated.
eMANDEVAL runs on preference estimates from discrete choice experiments on mandate designs. Assemble a design and it returns predicted public support, expected health outcomes, and a benefit-cost comparison against the alternatives.
For public health policymakers, researchers and partner agencies.
Predictions are model outputs conditional on the estimated preference structure and the sampled population. They are an input to a policy judgement, not the judgement. Part of MandEval.
