The Vaccine Allocation Model is intended to help public health officials determine how many persons in different target groups can receive treatment. The Vaccine Allocation Model can be used either in the advance planning stages of a vaccination campaign or for support during a vaccination campaign.

Vaccine Allocation Model - Version 3.0. This version allows one to set the number of doses per person for each target group. It also removes the pandemic severity scenarios that were present in the previous versions.
The following older versions of the Vaccine Allocation Model are still available:
Vaccine Allocation Model - Version 1.4
Version 1.4 uses the target groups from the Guidance on Allocating and Targeting Pandemic Influenza Vaccine.
Vaccine Allocation Model - Version 2.1
Version 2.1 uses the target groups from the recommendations for use of vaccine against novel influenza A (H1N1). These recommendations were made by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) on July 29, 2009. See http://www.cdc.gov/media/pressrel/2009/r090729b.htm for more information. This version also allows the user to change the number of doses per person.
