I made an attempt to estimate the cost-effectiveness of replicating research on Deworming in a previous post. There’s especially large uncertainty in the Deworming’s effect size, so I doubt you’d get as big an effect for SMC. But I think a similar Bayesian modeling approach could for this!
Thanks, I look forward to checking it out! I haven’t really followed the worm wars since like 2015 (I was in grad school at the time and a professor in the department wrote something about it that I liked a lot: http://www.columbia.edu/~mh2245/w/worms.html)and I would enjoy jumping back in, time permitting..but I actually just came down with covid so I think it’s time to take a rest 😃
