av_long_infected {anovir}

Average longevity: estimate for infected hosts

Description

Calculates expected longevity of infected hosts due to background mortality and mortality due to infection

Usage

av_long_infected(a1, b1, a2, b2, d1 = "", d2 = "")

Arguments

a1, b1

numeric: location & scale parameters for background mortality, respectively

a2, b2

numeric: location & scale parameters for mortality due to infection, respectively

d1, d2

character: probability distributions to describe background mortality and mortality due to infection, respectively

Details

The expected average longevity is calculated as the integral from zero to infinity for the product of the cumulative survival functions for background mortality and mortality due to infection, given values of a1, b1, d1, a2, b2, d2

Value

a vector
