Economic Burden, Policy Evaluation and Predicted Effect of Its Vaccine of Enterovirus Infection

Disease due to enterovirus infection is considered as a highly contagious disease and is a growing public health issue. Up to now, the information of economic burden for enterovirus infection is relatively lack. There are three objects in this study, First, to estimate the economic burden of enterovirus infection including direct cost and indirect cost; second, to evaluate the policy of suspending class to avoid the spread of infection; third, to predict the effect of enteroviris vaccine. Transmission dynamic models are applied to model the numbers of susceptible, infectious, and recovered ones, and death. All parameters in the transmission dynamic model are extracted from National Health Insurance Database and Department of Statistics, Ministry of Interior.
