Abstract

It is the intent of the work to support experts in the organization process of Covid-19 vaccination hubs. An approach based on Modelling & Simulation (M&S) is proposed and in particular, a simulation model of a real vaccination hub, located in South of Italy, has been developed. The simulation model recreates, with satisfactory accuracy, the evolution over the time of the real system and it has been used to analyze the system behavior under several operative scenarios. The generation of the alternative operative scenarios comes from the variation of multiple design parameters that affect multiple performance measures. The quantitative evaluation of the effects of the multiple design parameters on the multiple performance measures can be used as starting point to improve processes as well as to plan effectively available resources within vaccination hubs.
