Collection: Global Health Events web archive

Description: To address the ventilator allocation problem during the COVID-19 pandemic, the authors of this 16-page report designed a model that can be used to calculate the number of ventilators and respiratory therapists needed to achieve a target wait time - the average delay for a ventilator experienced by a new patient. The target wait time corresponds with a probability that any wait is experienced: If the average wait is small, most patients would in fact experience no wait at all.

Title: A Mechanism to Reduce Medical Supply Shortfalls During Pandemics | RAND

URL: https://www.rand.org/pubs/perspectives/PEA187-1.html

Collection: Global Health Events web archive

Description: If different regions face pandemic peaks at different points in time, supply shortfalls in regions suffering high infection caseloads (hot spots) can potentially be reduced by minimizing idle inventory and acquisitions of new supplies in regions with contemporaneously low infection caseloads (cool spots). This 16-page report discusses a potential backstopping mechanism for addressing that inefficient distribution. It also offers observations on how to evaluate whether the proposed mechanism could provide benefits over alternative responses in the ongoing coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic.
