Compute the likelihood for a single parasite count datum

llik_count(count, mu, sz, par_O, q = 6, bvm = 13)

Arguments

count: the parasite count
mu: the expected value for the count, given age
sz: the size parameter for a negative binomial distribution
par_O: parameters d_Omega
q: the sampling volume (in $\log_{10} microliters$ )
bvm: the blood volume (in $\log_{10} microliters$ )

Value

the negative log likelihood for the observation
