Series preface
Cost-Effectiveness, the third book in the series which sets out the key elements
of analyzing costs and outcomes, calculating cost-effectiveness, and reporting
results. The concept was then extended to cover several other important topic
areas. First, the design, conduct, and analysis of economic evaluations along-
side clinical trials have become a specialized area of activity with distinctive
methodological and practical issues, and its own debates and controversies. It
seemed worthy of a dedicated volume, hence the second book in the series,
Economic Evaluation in Clinical Trials. Next, while the use of cost–benefit
analysis in healthcare has spawned a substantial literature, this is mostly
theoretical, polemical, or focused on specific issues such as willingness to
pay. We believe the fourth book in the series, Applied Methods of Cost-Benefit
Analysis in Health Care, fills an important gap in the literature by providing a com-
prehensive guide to the theory but also the practical conduct of cost–benefit
analysis, again with copious illustrative material and worked out examples.
Each book in the series is an integrated text prepared by several contributing
authors, widely drawn from academic centers in the United Kingdom, the
United States, Australia, and elsewhere. Part of our role as editors has been to
foster a consistent style, but not to try to impose any particular line: that would
have been unwelcome and also unwise amidst the diversity of an evolving field.

Foreword
This raises another key feature of vaccines—they are “public goods” in the
sense that all people receiving a vaccination not only protect themselves but
also confer a small benefit on the entire remaining population. This benefit is
obviously larger as the R0 of the pathogen increases. Standard economic anal-
ysis (Phelps, 2017) shows that private incentives to become vaccinated lead
to vaccination rates that are too low, so public policy interventions can be-
come necessary to reach optimal levels of vaccination coverage in any given
population.1
Multiple issues can reduce vaccine uptake. Things that deter vaccination
coverage include painful or health-risking side effects, the necessity of mul-
tiple shots to achieve full immunity, and the mode of administration (in de-
scending order of preference, oral, intramuscular injection, and intravenous
injection). Apparently simple issues can also confound distribution through
the supply chain, including the “cold chain” requirements for storage from
manufacturing up to the point of final administration (both temperature and
volume of space), and even requisite shelf space for storage of supplies.
In the production process itself, supply chain availability of key compo-
nents can rate-limit production, as can the simple issue of availability of
glass vials of appropriate size and characteristics, and even the availability
of needles to give injections. Complete consideration of these issues requires
a comprehensive systems analysis review of all facets of vaccine produc-
tion, distribution, financial, and logistics issues that can deter patients’ ac-
cess to vaccines, and information campaigns (Madhavan, Phelps, Rouse, &
Rappuoli, 2018).
In addition to their primary health effects, vaccines can have profound ec-
onomic implications that extend far beyond avoided healthcare costs. Worker
productivity rises when contagious diseases are suppressed. Particularly in
areas where endemic diseases such as malaria exist, school participation and
final educational attainment suffer, so vaccines that either prevent the disease
or reduce disease severity can lead to long-term economic gains from im-
proved education and higher final attainment levels. These will increase future
worker productivity, make for a more informed electorate, and even reduce
the rate at which people undertake harmful consumption choices (tobacco,
alcohol abuse, lack of exercise, and obesity) (Phelps, 2010).
1 The “cost” of vaccination can be monetary, physical, or psychological, and may be based on misinfor-
mation. In rural and lower-income areas, travel costs to receive second and third shots may reduce vacci-
nation rates in a way similar to the effect of monetary fees. Fear of physical pain or other adverse reaction
also inhibits vaccination acceptance. Sometimes, misinformation deters vaccination acceptance, such as in
individuals who believe the now-refuted concept that vaccine adjuvants lead to autism in children.

David Bishai, Introduction to the handbook In: Handbook of Applied Health Economics in Vaccines. Edited by:
David Bishai, Logan Brenzel and William V. Padula, Oxford University Press. © Oxford University Press 2023.

xvi Introduction to the handbook
with a grant from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, a consortium known
as Teaching Vaccine Economics Everywhere (TVEE) started with faculty
from Johns Hopkins University, Aga Khan University, Indian Institute of
Hospital Management Research University, Makerere University, and
Witwatersrand University. (The University of Ouagadougou and Mahidol
University joined in 2019.) The goal of TVEE was to prepare and deliver a
curriculum in vaccine economics that stretched from introductory material
to advanced methods with an audience ranging from policymakers and prac-
titioners to economics graduate students. After several workshops to de-
velop outlines of the necessary fundamentals in the field, the curriculum
was organized around modules on economic principles, costing, economic
evaluation, financing, and resource tracking. Courses were co-taught live
in university settings and online with slides and videos available in French
and English. Many of the participants in these courses were practitioners so
there was a focus on immediately applying principles to problems. The ex-
ercises accompanying this handbook have undergone extensive classroom-
based refinement.
This handbook goes beyond the original classroom material by including
material from leaders in the field to fill in essential areas and connect readers
to emerging consensus in the areas of vaccine costing, evaluation, and guid-
ance. The economics lessons learned during the COVID-19 pandemic are still
emerging, but the authors have incorporated them whenever possible.
If nothing else, the ongoing struggle to solve the economic problems sur-
rounding the deployment of COVID-19 vaccines will stimulate many more
readers and practitioners to consider the economics of vaccines. This is a
beautiful field and promises life-changing rewards.
Acknowledgments
Bishai, Brenzel, and Padula wish to thank the countless individuals who
have studied vaccine economics through the Teaching Vaccine Economics
Everywhere (TVEE) program. Faculty and workshop participants in Burkina
Faso, India, Pakistan, South Africa, Thailand, and Uganda spent weeks dis-
cussing the elements of vaccine economics that were central to both research
and policymaking. Their support of TVEE, and feedback, instilled a sense of
confidence that the content in this handbook could deliver change in vaccine
capacity building throughout countries and communities worldwide.
We would like to acknowledge the supporting roles of Shreena Malaviya,
Gatien de Broucker, and Mandy Chen, whose efforts to manage elements of
the manuscript development from start to finish were critical in its success.
The editors and authors also wish to thank their families, whose daily sup-
port of efforts to develop this manuscript during the midst of the COVID-19
pandemic was instrumental to completing this work.
Financial support was provided through a grant to the Johns Hopkins
University (INV-009627). This funding source has made this handbook
openly accessible to individuals seeking to learn more about excellence in vac-
cine economics.
