Vaccines given to children in their first year of life have protective effects until they are five years of age. When editing vaccine coverage, users will have to specify coverage in the four years prior to the base year of coverage of the LiST module. This will allow the model to correctly compute the protective effects of vaccines for children in different age groups in a given year.
For each vaccine, the number of doses that is considered "full coverage" is displayed on the "Vaccines" tab. To enter coverage of incomplete doses and/or supplemental vaccination, double-click on the relevant vaccine. There are no default effectiveness estimates for supplemental vaccination (additional doses or "boosters"), although there are effectiveness estimates for suboptimal dosing. The sum of all the doses must be less than or equal to 100% of children.
If a supplemental campaign is being modeled, check the box for "supplemental vaccination - campaign implemented" in the relevant year. Then enter data on geographic coverage, low and high age groups targeted, and the average number of doses per child. Select the radial button at the top of the page to enter either the number of doses provided or the percent of target population reached, and then enter those values at the bottom of the page. Default values are not available for this section of the model.
BCG
• | Definition: Percent of live births receiving at least one dose of BCG. |
• | Notes: BCG is included in LiST to indicate that it is an important intervention delivered during the first five years of life. |
• | Effect size reference: The current assumption is that BCG has no measurable impact upon under-five mortality. |

Polio
• | Definition: Percent of children who survive the first year of life who have received at least three doses of polio vaccine. |
• | Notes: Polio vaccination is included in LiST to indicate that it is an important intervention delivered during the first five years of life. |
• | Effect size reference: The current assumption is that polio vaccination has no measurable impact upon under-five mortality. |

Pentavalent
• | Definition: Percent of children who survive the first year of life who have received 3 doses of pentavalent vaccine. |
• | Default data source: N/A Currently set at 0 for baseline |
• | Notes: If coverage of DTP, Hib, and HepB are at the same level, users can use that as coverage of Pentavalent. Changing the pentavalent vaccine coverage will automatically change the coverage of DPT, Hib, and HepB. See the individual vaccines for effect information. |

DPT
• | Definition: Percent of children who survive the first year of life who have received 3 doses of DPT vaccine. |
• | Notes: The effect of DPT is only on pertussis mortality. There is currently no impact on tetanus or diphtheria mortality. Default herd effect is 0. Note that herd immunity can be adjusted if desired. |

Hib
• | Definition: Percent of children who survive the first year of life who have received 3 doses of Hib vaccine. |
• | Notes: There is default herd effect applied. Note that herd immunity can be adjusted. |

HepB
• | Definition: Percent of live births who have received at least three doses of Hepatitis B vaccine. |
• | Notes: Hepatitis B vaccination is included in LiST to indicate that it is an important intervention delivered during the first five years of life. |
• | Effect size reference: The current assumption is that hepatitis B vaccination has no measurable impact upon under-five mortality. |

Pneumococcal
• | Definition: Percent of children who survive the first year of life who have received 3 doses of Pneumococcal vaccine. |
• | Notes: There is default herd effect applied. Note that herd immunity can be adjusted. |

Rotavirus
• | Definition: Percent of children who survive the first year of life who have received 2 or 3 doses of Rotavirus vaccine (according to manufacturer’s schedule). |
• | Notes: The effect size varies by geographic region. Default herd effect is 0. Note that herd immunity can be adjusted. |
Top
Measles
• | Definition: Percent of children who survive the first year of life who have received 1 dose of measles vaccine. |
• | Notes: The default model is appropriate for vaccines which have already been rolled out, but not necessarily for new vaccines. The model may not necessarily correctly estimate the time to elimination of disease (at the very extremes of coverage) but will correctly model control of disease. Note that the impact of herd immunity can be adjusted. Default herd effect is 100% at 95% coverage. The effect of supplemental campaigns and second-opportunity measles vaccination can also be calculated. |

Meningococcal A
• | Definition: Percent of children who survive the first year of life who have received a full course of Meningococcal A vaccine (according to manufacturer’s schedule). |
• | Notes: For default, we assume a single dose is full coverage. |
