The values and descriptions of the parameters used in the simulations.

The values were calibrated for each network using the passive vaccination approach.
* The values , and were calibrated such that the average annual vaccine coverage on each network was approximately using appropriate values.
** was used in calibrating influenza incidence () using values similar to influenza's [40]–[42] on each network such that the average peak of prevalence occurred between January and February [66].
†The value for was calculated such that the annual incidence of non-influenzal influenza-like-illness (niILI) was , corresponding to the ratio of niILI incidence to influenza incidence estimated in [62] and multiplied by the average annual influenza incidence () [37], [40]–[42].
††The variance for was calibrated such that the log-normal distribution best resembled the shape of a normal distribution.
◊ was computed as the cost of the actual vaccination and plus the time required to receive the vaccination .
