Quantification of varicella-zoster virus boosting mechanisms with their public health implications for vaccination.

The general aim is (1) to quantify exogenous boosting by means of an observational longitudinal study, (2) implement this result in newly adapted epidemiological models, (3) assess the population effects of vaccination against VZV and (4) apply this to inform a cost-utility analysis examining vaccination against VZV.
