ARCHIVED: Appendix 7b: The Management of the National Antiviral Stockpile: Options Report - Purchase requirements, by jurisdiction, to meet paediatric oseltamivir, zanamivir, and amantadine targets

 

APPENDIX 7b:  Purchase requirements, by jurisdiction, to meet paediatric oseltamivir, zanamivir, and amantadine targets1 (adjusted to actual paediatric populations for YK, NT, NU)
(costs for purchases, by jurisdiction, were provided to Public Health Network Council)

Notes:

1 2008 Population Estimates:  Total population >1 year of age = 33 million; total paediatric population (1-<12) = 4 million; total adult population (12+) = 29 million

2 P/T Proportions Used: 2008 total population census data, with the exception of YK, NT, NU where actual paediatric population data were used due to a higher birth rate and lower life expectancy in those jurisdictions. This resulted in a slightly higher total NAS quantity for paediatric oseltamivir and zanamivir

3 There are already approx. 2 million paediatric oseltamivir capsules already in the NAS and distributed to P/Ts on a per capita basis, the table reflects the remaining 7.2 million doses to be purchased.

4 NT adult oseltamivir stock does not expire until 2011. Options to be discussed with PWGSC in order to meet paediatric targets through Exchange program, etc.

5 Calculations are based on actual paediatric population for the 3 northern jurisdictions rather than based on national population proportions given their unique demographics (i.e. higher proportion of children)
