The Value Attribution Framework for Vaccines against AMR Economic Burden Estimation

The Economic Burden of Drug Resistant Infections & The Potential Impact of Vaccines

This is the repo (2) for the paper for the paper: Naylor, Nichola R. and Hasso-Agopsowicz, Mateusz and Kim, Chaelin and Ma, Yixuan and Frost, Isabel and Abbas, Kaja and Aguilar, Gisela and Fuller, Naomi M. and Robotham, Julie V. and Jit, Mark, The Global Economic Burden of Antibiotic Resistant Infections and the Potential Impact of Bacterial Vaccines: A Modelling Study. Available at SSRN: https://ssrn.com/abstract=4676946 or http://dx.doi.org/10.2139/ssrn.4676946

Repo (1), which provides some of the inputs to this work, is the Antmicrobial Resistance Unit Cost Repository: Available @ https://github.com/NikkiR08/AMR-UCR

Description

This repo combines epidemiology estimates (provided by Chaelin Kim based on her work in this paper:https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2022.05.08.22274821v2 & code in this repository : https://github.com/vaccine-impact/vaccine_amr ), with economic unit cost estimates (from https://github.com/NikkiR08/AMR-UCR). Inflation and exchange rate data are used to preserve local currency units and local economic shifts throughout, where possible. All cost results are then presented in 2019 USD.

Note the accompanying paper is going through review processes and therefore this repository is subject to change until publication.

plot_creation R script with plot code - additional plots e.g. bubble plots are available in "6_Additional_Plots.R" that were made at a later date.
outputs Outputs from the analyse
data_all This contains data not-uploaded to github but used across stages of the analyses (e.g. population estimates)
data_inputs This contains data not-uploaded to github but to input into the analyses from the econ and epi work packages
