Types Distribution
These tables present type distribution by age. Since type distribution varies by age, the model allows for intervention efficacy for four different age groups: <2 years, 2 to <5 years, 5 to <10 years and > 10 years. If age-specific data are not available, type distribution data should be entered the same for all age categories.

Intervention Efficacy Rates Against Disease 1
This table presents the clinical trial efficacy data against invasive pneumococcal disease (Disease 1) for each of the interventions: Intervention B, and Intervention C. Efficacy data for Disease 1 are based on type specific efficacy from clinical trials. Based on the number of doses specified the model calculates, in the columns to the right, a maximum effectiveness for each intervention per type.

Intervention Efficacy against Decease 4
This table presents the efficacy data against acute otitis media (AOM) for each of the interventions: Intervention B and Intervention C. Efficacy data for Decease 4 are not available by type or by dose. Instead, efficacy is modeled as efficacy against Pathogen 1 intervention types and non-intervention types. Efficacy at reducing disease caused by non-typable H. influenzae (Pathogen 1) is also included in the estimate of reduction in episodes of Decease 4 , as measured by Decease 4 -related GP visits and myringotomy procedures.

Expected Annual Earnings for Patients and Parents of Sick Children
This table presents age-specific average annual salaries and employment rates based on data from the Office of National Statistics and the Labour Force Survey. These two values are used to calculate the expected annual earnings by age group, which is used by the model to estimate the cost of productivity loss due to time lost from work due to pneumococcal-related illness. The user should use the cells with a blue border to update the annual salary estimates and employment rates in the UK.

Parents (age 18-49)*
* The percentage of families where no full-time parent is at home was roughly estimated by assuming each child lives with both parents and calculating the square of the average employment rate for a person between the ages of 18 and 49 (i.e., 75.9% × 75.9% = 57.6%).
Chapter 2
Work Loss Estimate for Patients & Parents of Sick Children
This table presents estimates of time lost from work for patients of working age or time lost from work for working parents of sick children for each of the disease outcomes. These time estimates are multiplied by the estimated annual earnings for a parent to estimate productivity losses due to illness. As a default, time lost from work for parents of sick children is assumed to be equal to time lost from work for patients.. The cut off age for children to adults is defined on the worksheet "Costs". The user should go to this worksheet to modify the cut off age.

CROSS PROTECTION
Cross protection occurs when a intervention demonstrates efficacy in non-intervention types. The model allows the user to include or exclude cross protection. When "No cross protection" is selected, the default values for cross protection on this sheet change to zero. When cross protection for 1 or 3b (or both) are selected, the model assumes the same level of cross protection for Prevenar (Intervention A) and Intervention B.

DURATION OF PROTECTION
The model assumes that there is a ramp-up in intervention efficacy based on the values below. The model assumes efficacy declines proportionally until the defined duration period is reached. After this duration, direct effects of the intervention are assumed to be zero.
