Poisson Force of Infection

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 ($b$): $$h=bE$$
