A negative binomial model for the daily FoI as a function of the daily EIR.

Implements foi2eir for a negative binomial model

# S3 method for class 'nb'
foi2eir(foi, b, pars)

Arguments

foi

the daily FoI for each stratum

b

the probability of infection, per bite

pars

an xds object

Value

a numeric vector of length nStrata

Details

Compute the daily AR, \(h\), given the daily EIR, \(E\), under a negative binomial model for the distribution of bites per person, and \(b\), the probability of infection per infective bite: $$\alpha = \left(e^{h/\phi} -1\right) \frac \phi b $$
