Compartmental Susceptible-Infectious-Recovered (SIR) Model of
Community and Household Infection
Description
We build an Susceptible-Infectious-Recovered (SIR) model where the rate of infection is the sum of the household rate and the community rate. We estimate the posterior distribution of the parameters using the Metropolis algorithm.
