creates a data structure for holding pre-erythrocytic vaccine profile parameters. Parameters are validated on creation.

create_pev_profile(vmax, alpha, beta, cs, rho, ds, dl)

Arguments

vmax

maximum efficacy of the vaccine

alpha

shape parameter for the vaccine efficacy model

beta

scale parameter for the vaccine efficacy model

cs

peak parameters for the antibody model (vector of mean and std. dev)

rho

delay parameters for the antibody model (vector of mean and std. dev)

ds

delay parameters for the antibody model, short-term waning (vector of mean and std. dev)

dl

delay parameters for the antibody model, long-term waning (vector of mean and std. dev)
