Table 2 Relationship between the time after the switch until the net reproduction number (Rn) of OPV2 (stage 0) virus exceeds 1, the Rn of OPV2 (stage 0) virus at the time of the switch, and population-specific properties based on the populations from the global model [4] represented in the distributions of Fig. 1 (analysis I base case with tOPV intensification)

From: Implementation of coordinated global serotype 2 oral poliovirus vaccine cessation: risks of potential non-synchronous cessation

  1. Model input symbols: [3, 16] R 0 average annual basic reproduction number for WPV of serotype 1, tr take rate of serotype 2 tOPV, POL3 RI coverage with 3 or more non-birth doses, TC true coverage of each SIA, p oro proportion of transmissions via oropharyngeal route
  2. aDefined as the average Rn of OPV2 over the one-year period preceding the switch
  3. bThe global model uses R0 for WPV1 to characterize variability in subpopulations, R0 for serotype 2 WPV equals 0.9 times the values shown in this column
