EB013A number of vaccines for Ebola are being developed.

It is possible that a vaccine will have these features:

  • You can take the vaccine by getting a shot in your arm
  • The vaccine protects you from getting infected with the Ebola virus for fourteen (14) months
  • There are no serious "side effects" for your health, though chills or an upset stomach could happen
  • The cost is $^FL_EB013
In addition, suppose that one out of ten (10% of) people in your community are using the vaccine.

Would you pay the $^FL_EB013 cost out of your own money to take the vaccine yourself?
WOULD PAY THE COST YOURSELF FOR THE VACCINE--10%
EB014Suppose the cost of the vaccine is again $^FL_EB013.

Now, however, nine out of ten (90% of) people in your community are using the vaccine.

Everything else is the same as before.

  • You can take the vaccine by getting a shot in your arm
  • The vaccine protects you from getting infected with the Ebola virus for fourteen (14) months
  • There are no serious "side effects" for your health, though chills or an upset stomach could happen
  • The cost is $^FL_EB013
Would you pay the $^FL_EB013 of your own money to take the vaccine?
WOULD PAY THE COST YOURSELF FOR THE VACCINE--90%
EB015Again suppose that one out of ten (10% of) people in your community are using the vaccine shots.

However, a second "booster" shot is required, and it keeps you from getting Ebola for ten (10) months.

The total cost of the two shots is $^FL_EB013.

Would you pay the $^FL_EB013 cost to take the shots?
WOULD PAY THE COST FOR THE VACCINE--BOOSTER
