Make contact matrix from Mistry et al. data
Usage
mk_contact_pars(age.group.lower, setting.weight)
Arguments
- age.group.lower
Numeric vector. Lower bounds for desired age groups
- setting.weight
Named numeric vector of the average contact rate by setting to reflect closures.
Value
A list with:
p.mat: the row-normalized matrix of contact probabilities
c.hat: the vector of row sums from the contact rate matrix, giving the average contact rate per age group; used to set up the transmission vector to maintain the contact balance condition
