Discussion of Laber et al. "Optimal treatment allocations in space and time for on-line control of an emerging infectious disease".

Laber et al.’s use of the rank-based priority function R heightens the importance of the constraint ct in estimating π. While this paper assumes ct is given, in practice ct may be more flexible, and different specifications of ct may greatly alter the course of disease. We think this resource allocation problem—determining how much of a pool of resources to spend at each time point—provides an important and challenging direction for future research in the context of infectious diseases. One possible approach is to include the number of caves to treat at each time point in the action space and incorporate the cost of the actions into the utility function.
