Identification of causal intervention effects under contagion

Cai, Xiaoxuan; Loh, Wen Wei; Crawford, Forrest W. - In: Journal of Causal Inference 9 (2021) 1, pp. 9-38

Abstract Defining and identifying causal intervention effects for transmissible infectious disease outcomes is challenging because a treatment – such as a vaccine – given to one individual may affect the infection outcomes of others. Epidemiologists have proposed causal estimands to quantify...
