The SVIRLQS model incorporates vaccination, waning immunity, immune boosting, and secondary infections to predict disease dynamics more accurately than previous frameworks. Fitted to CDC surveillance data from Sept-Dec 2024, the model demonstrates vaccination significantly reduces disease burden but immunity decline enables ongoing transmission.

Consumers benefit from optimized vaccination timing recommendations that could reduce influenza incidence, hospitalizations, and associated out-of-pocket healthcare costs. However, findings on immune waning suggest need for booster strategies, potentially increasing vaccination-related expenses.
Governments may implement earlier seasonal vaccination campaigns and increase coverage targets based on model findings. Regulatory bodies may require vaccine manufacturers to address immune waning through improved formulations. Public health budgets may need reallocation toward early deployment infrastructure and monitoring systems for breakthrough infections.
