In this paper, we analyze a game …-theoretical model of HBV dynamics that incorporates government-provided vaccination at birth coupled with voluntary vaccinations of … susceptible adults and teens. We show that the optimal voluntary vaccination brings the disease incidence to very low levels. This …

A game-theoretic setting is used to illuminate the conflict between vaccination proponents and vaccination opponents. A … central result is that vaccination proponents could in principle persuade vaccination opponents to vaccinate by means of …

vaccination on the part of governments and citizens.

Further, depending on the magnitude of the peer effects and the costs of infection and vaccination, peer effects may increase … or decrease differences in worker group vaccination rates within the hospital. …
