Poisson Force of Infection

A Poisson model for the force of infection as a function of the daily EIR.

Usage

# S3 method for class 'pois'
F_foi(eir, b, pars)

Arguments

eir

the daily eir for each stratum

b

the probability of infection, per bite

pars

an xds object

Value

a numeric vector of length nStrata

Details

This function computes the daily FoI (\(h\)) as function of the local daily EIR (\(E\)) under a Poisson model for the distribution of bites per person, and the probability of infection per infective bite (\(b\)): $$h = b E$$
