Epidemiology Vaccine Coverage

Derive vaccine effectiveness from field surveillance data using the screening method (Farrington 1993), then compute the required vaccination coverage threshold. Requires R0, proportion of cases vaccinated (PCV), and proportion of population vaccinated (PPV). Formula: VE = 1 - [PCV*(1-PPV)]/[(1-PCV)*PPV], then Vc = (1-1/R0)/VE.
