Age-prioritized use of antivirals during an influenza pandemic in Italy: antiviral stockpile. Antiviral stockpile required and number of avoided cases divided by the number of persons treated for antiviral treatment provided to index cases of all age classes (blue) or provided only to specific age classes (cyan, Y = young, A = adults, E = elderly), and for post-exposure prophylactic treatment provided to all age classes (red) or only to specific age classes (orange, Y = young, A = adults, E = elderly). When post-exposure prophylactic treatment is considered, we assume that antiviral treatment is also provided to index cases. The horizontal black line represents the Italian antiviral stockpile.
