MCMC_date

Converts dates to a list of numbers representing the number
of days from the start of followup until the start of the infectious period.

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.
