Comment by dotExe on A decision tree for vaccinating children against Covid-19, or how to wisely make a monumental decision · 2022-01-18T12:21:59.183Z · LW · GW

Since there are so many possible applications for this model, this is great help when trying to explain ones decisions to others as well. As in: How did I arrive at my conclusions and how much cost/benefit did I attribute towards every step to arrive there, and why.

One small note on the final step of "vaccinate" and "not vaccinate": the total cost of the "vaccinate" branch has to be ≥ 600 shillings, one decimal point must have gotten lost somewhere in the calculation.
