The model included the entire age-stratified US population and was fitted to national incidence data for serogroups C, W, and Y from January 1, 2001, to December 31, 2021, with stratification by vaccination status for IMD cases.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"ab-zoi241243-7\"><jats:title>Intervention<\/jats:title><jats:p>Simulated counterfactual scenario of absent vaccination from 2005 to 2021, while retaining the incidence rate of IMD for unvaccinated individuals estimated during model fitting.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"ab-zoi241243-8\"><jats:title>Main Outcomes and Measures<\/jats:title><jats:p>The main outcomes were the estimated numbers of IMD cases and deaths averted by MenACWY vaccination among US adolescents and young adults aged 11 to 23 years.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"ab-zoi241243-9\"><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Among the entire US population from 2005 to 2021, MenACWY vaccination prevented an estimated 172 (95% credible interval [CrI], 85-345) cases of IMD among US adolescents 11 to 15 years of age and 328 (95% CrI, 164-646) cases of IMD among those aged 16 to 23 years. Absent vaccination, the cumulative incidence of IMD in these age groups would have been at least 59% higher than reported over the same period with vaccination. Using case fatality rates of unvaccinated individuals derived from national data, vaccination averted an estimated 16 (95% CrI, 8-31) deaths among adolescents aged 11 to 15 years and 38 (95% CrI, 19-75) deaths among those aged 16 to 23 years.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"ab-zoi241243-10\"><jats:title>Conclusions and Relevance<\/jats:title><jats:p>This decision analytical model suggests that the MenACWY vaccination program in the US was associated with a reduced burden of meningococcal disease.
