MenB IMD is a vaccine-preventable disease. This analysis for Germany can inform decision-makers on the potential impact of introducing infant 4CMenB UMV. The program is predicted to rapidly produce health benefits (reduction in child cases, deaths and sequelae) at a cost per QALY to society of around €190,000 (base case), decreasing to around €78,000 when considering societal preferences and IMD underreporting.
