We asked a range of key decision-makers what they need to know to about potential new vaccines The results were..... Alot, and WHO's Full Value of Vaccine Assessments framework helps But FVVAs could be even more useful Our new paper gives 3 ways FVVAs could be even better:

Thanks to co-authors @mert0248, Edwin van Leeuwen, @VetSree, @markjit and @rozeggo! Also for a fuller understanding of the cost-effectiveness of such vaccines check out our other paper, answering similar questions in a completely different setting! bmcmedicine.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…

We are still far from reaching WHO's target of bringing HPV vaccines to 90% of girls before age 15. Excited by opportunities that 1-dose vaccine schedules offer to help bring HPV vaccines to more people. This paper led by @kiesha_prem is a key piece of evidence to inform this.

Great that WHO's Full Value of Vaccines Assessment framework is now published in @BMCMedicine . This has been used by WHO + collaborators to assess many recent vaccines in development. rdcu.be/df00V

Fantastic that @TheEconomist are highlighting the global disparities around HPV vaccine uptake as well as the opportunity we have to end cervical cancer as public health problem.

London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine@LSHTM

In 2020 cervical cancer killed 342,000 women 🌍 95% of cervical #cancer cases are caused by #HPV @TheEconomist uses model by Kaja Abbas & @markjit to estimate successful global HPV #vaccine initiative could reduce cervical cancer deaths by 2.65m by 2030💉📉👇

This new collection we put together shows most RSV burden is in very young infants in KE and ZA. So new RSV vaccines and mAbs could be even more cost-effective in some LMICs than recognised. Results of tremendous work by @nicd_sa @KEMRI_Kenya @PATHtweets @LSHTM investigators.

Research by Waterlow et al. finds that next-generation vaccines may offer a cost-effective intervention to reduce influenza burden in low-income countries with year-round seasonality. @LSHTM @N_R_Waterlow Read more about this modelling study here: bmcmedicine.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…

@Anna_Carnegie and I are running a COVID-19 reflective session on the 28th of March for those involved in the UK modelling response. We hope to provide a neutral space for participants to reflect on their experiences and make suggestions to improve future outbreak responses.
