Abstract

After a pandemic outbreak, designing and implementing an effective vaccine supply chain is key. The last-mile vaccine delivery (LMVD) – the last stage of the vaccine supply chain – is of particular importance. LMVD design choices, such as the delivery mode (e.g., mobile team or PODs) and the number and locations of PODs, affect “operational attributes” like travel time and waiting time. This paper aims to understand how operational attributes of LMVD systems impact vaccination preferences across different priority groups, pandemic stages, and countries.
