This sets up a list that stores all the information required by the blood feeding model, including information about humans (the residence vector, search weights for blood feeding mosquitoes); the mosquitoes circadian pattern (F_circadian); and derived structures, including the time spent (TimeSpent) and the time at risk (TaR) matrices. This also sets up the objects required for blood feeding, including host availability for each species (Wi) and for all hosts (W), other blood hosts (Other), and total blood availability (B). Finally, it sets up the lists that will hold the mixing matrix (beta), and the transmission terms describing the entomological inoculation rate (EIR and eir), and the force of infection (FoI), and the net infectiousness (kappa and ni).
