A counterfactual analysis quantifying the COVID-19 vaccination impact in Sweden
Our mathematical model is used to analyse the impact of COVID-19 vaccination on lives saved in Sweden during 2021, but the same methodology can be applied to other countries. The counterfactual analysis offers insights into an alternative trajectory of the pandemic without vaccination. The results show the direct impact of vaccination on reducing deaths for infected individuals and shed light on the indirect effects of reduced transmission dynamics.
