- A variety of live-attenuated varicella vaccines are available worldwide, but in Mexico, vaccination is not part of the national immunization program and is only recommended for high-risk groups.
- A budget impact model was developed to analyze the financial implications of implementing universal varicella vaccination for children, comparing scenarios with and without vaccination.
- The analysis showed that while introducing new vaccines increased initial costs, it ultimately led to overall savings within the first 10 years due to reduced varicella cases and treatment expenses, especially with a highly effective vaccine at 95% coverage.
