The Willingness to Pay for Vaccination against Tick-borne Encephalitis and Implications for Public Health Policy: Evidence from Sweden
https://doi.org/10.5878/002744
The study estimates the willingness to pay (WTP) for TBE vaccination and the effect of a possible TBE vaccine subsidy on vaccination rates in Sweden. We also estimate the current vaccination coverage in areas differing in TBE incidence and analyze the role of income, risk behavior and other factors influencing vaccine demand.
Purpose:
To estimate the willingness to pay (WTP) for TBE vaccination and the effect of a possible TBE vaccine subsidy on vaccination rates in Sweden.
