Abstract:ObjectiveMathematical models are vital tools to understand transmission dynamics and assess the impact of interventions to mitigate COVID‐19. However, historically, their use in Africa has been limited. In this scoping review, we assess how mathematical models were used to study COVID‐19 vaccination to potentially inform pandemic planning and response in Africa.MethodsWe searched six electronic databases: MEDLINE, Embase, Web of Science, Global Health, MathSciNet and Africa‐Wide NiPAD, using keywords to identi… Show more
