Put up a decision method for the vaccination policy in Flanders (VACCINATIEBELEID VL)

In this research, the Flemish government calls for the development of a method that can help to make 'correct' decisions in the field of vaccination, not only based on purely scientific advice on 'the epidemiology of, each vaccineable infectious disease separately and therefore not in relation to vaccination options for other disorders ', but from a' broader scope a prioritization can be determined of the vaccinations that should be implemented or already be ', taking into account' financial aspects (affordability), cost-benefit elements, political and social relevance, [...] and the opportunity cost of the choice for the prevention of one specific disease '. MCDA can offer a clear answer to this problem.
