Allocating and scheduling limited number of resources for vaccination is a complex problem because: a) different subgroups may have different risk of infection and/or complications following it, b) epidemics of infectious diseases are nonlinear and dynamic, c) the time horizon impacts the scheduling decision, since short-term considerations may not yield the same results as long-term ones (Brandeau 2005) . For each possible vaccination initiation day, the solution (number of infective cases) yielded by the heuristic algorithm is compared to the baseline scenario, (no vaccination) and the maximum resources scenario (constant number of allocated mobile medical teams to each district by using population drivers as seen in Table 5 ).	./cache/cord-006939-q5o3lrh2.txt	./txt/cord-006939-q5o3lrh2.txt
