Vaccine Planning App
A constantly changing vaccine supply, with shifting policies about priority classes (age, occupation, health condition) and an unbalanced geographical spread of these classes, make vaccination planning a big challenge. This app helps health and government organizations balance the supply and demand of vaccines, make decisions about center locations, hours and staffing and identify the best ways to achieve their health objectives. The application helps you more easily look at a variety of variables with the power of sophisticated analytics. This enables you to better understand tradeoffs and allocate vaccines to the locations where they are needed most. Read the license agreement
