Rapid Emergence of Free-Riding Behavior in New Pediatric Immunization Programs
BACKGROUND Mathematical models have formalized how free-rider effects can threaten the stability of high vaccine coverage levels under established voluntary vaccination programs. However, little research has addressed the question of when free-riding begins to develop when a new vaccine is first introduced in a population. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Here, we combine a game theoretical mod...
متن کاملThe Spread of Free-Riding Behavior in a Social Network
We study a model where agents, located in a social network, decide whether to exert e¤ort or not in experimenting with a new technology (or acquiring a new skill, innovating, etc.). We assume that agents have strong incentives to free ride on their neighborse¤ort decisions. In the static version of the model e¤orts are chosen simultaneously. In equilibrium, agents exerting e¤ort are never conn...
متن کاملEconomic evaluation of pediatric influenza immunization program compared with other pediatric immunization programs: A systematic review
This study compared the economic value of pediatric immunisation programmes for influenza to those for rotavirus (RV), meningococcal disease (MD), pneumococcal disease (PD), human papillomavirus (HPV), hepatitis B (Hep B), and varicella reported in recent (2000 onwards) cost-effectiveness (CE) studies identified in a systematic review of PubMed, health technology, and vaccination databases.

متن کاملOn Analyzing Free-Riding Behavior in BitTorrent Communities
BitTorrent is undoubtedly the most popular P2P file sharing systems in existence that has been able to attract millions of users. BitTorrent depends on global components for file search, engages a moderator system to guarantee the data integrity of file, and uses an exchange mechanism for file sharing in order to discourage users from free-riding. We conduct one of the largest measurement and a...
