Targeted Mass Inoculation

Abstract

In general, the present disclosure involves targeted mass inoculation, and in particular, intelligent systems for mass-inoculating a plurality of hosts without delivering multiple doses to any single individual. In an illustrative example, a transmission system for targeted mass inoculation includes a first pathogen, a primary host that receives the first pathogen, a vector that receives a second pathogen from the primary host, and a plurality of secondary hosts each configured to receive a single dose of the second pathogen from the vector. In some such implementations, the vector includes a mechanical device having internal processing circuitry configured to distinguish between different secondary hosts, and maintain a database indicating which of the plurality of secondary hosts have already received the single dose of the second pathogen.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
