Generate annual burden data in format used by VIMC

Usage

Generate_VIMC_Burden_Dataset(
  input_data = list(),
  FOI_values = c(),
  R0_values = c(),
  template = NULL,
  vaccine_efficacy = 1,
  p_severe_inf = 0.12,
  p_death_severe_inf = 0.39,
  YLD_per_case = 0.006486,
  mode_start = 1,
  start_SEIRV = NULL,
  dt = 1,
  n_reps = 1,
  deterministic = FALSE,
  mode_parallel = FALSE,
  cluster = NULL,
  seed = NULL
)

Arguments

input_data

List of population and vaccination data for multiple regions

FOI_values

Values for each region of the force of infection due to spillover from sylvatic reservoir

R0_values

Values for each region of the basic reproduction number for human-human transmission

template

Burden data in VIMC format, with regions, years, minimum and maximum age, and life expectancy for each line

vaccine_efficacy

Fractional vaccine efficacy

p_severe_inf

Probability of an infection being severe

p_death_severe_inf

Probability of a severe infection resulting in death

YLD_per_case

TBA

mode_start

Flag indicating how to set initial population immunity level in addition to vaccination If mode_start=0, only vaccinated individuals If mode_start=1, shift some non-vaccinated individuals into recovered to give herd immunity (uniform by age, R0 based only) If mode_start=2, use SEIRV input in list from previous run(s) If mode_start=3, shift some non-vaccinated individuals into recovered to give herd immunity (stratified by age)

start_SEIRV

SEIRV data from end of a previous run to use as input (list of datasets, one per region)

dt

Time increment in days to use in model (should be either 1.0 or 5.0 days)

n_reps

number of stochastic repetitions

deterministic

TRUE/FALSE - set model to run in deterministic mode if TRUE

mode_parallel

TRUE/FALSE - set model to run in parallel using cluster if TRUE

cluster

Cluster of threads to use if mode_parallel=TRUE

seed

Optional random seed value to set before running each region for stochastic normalization; set to NULL to omit; will not work if mode_parallel is not set to "none". '
