This review also systematically evaluates the polio transmission and health economic modeling papers published in English in peer-reviewed journals from 2000 to 2019, highlights differences in approaches and methods, shows the geographic coverage of the transmission modeling performed, identified common themes, and discusses instances of similar or conflicting insights or recommendations.\n\nExpert opinion\nPolio modeling performed during the last 20 years substantially impacted polio vaccine choices, immunization policies, and the polio eradication pathway. As the polio endgame continues, national preferences for polio vaccine formulations and immunization strategies will likely continue to change. Future modeling will likely provide important insights about their cost-effectiveness and their relative benefits with respect to controlling polio and potentially achieving and maintaining eradication.","divisions":[{"label":"title","span":{"begin":0,"end":8}},{"label":"sec","span":{"begin":10,"end":383}},{"label":"title","span":{"begin":10,"end":22}},{"label":"p","span":{"begin":23,"end":383}},{"label":"sec","span":{"begin":385,"end":939}},{"label":"title","span":{"begin":385,"end":398}},{"label":"p","span":{"begin":399,"end":939}},{"label":"title","span":{"begin":941,"end":955}}],"tracks":[]}
