EuropeCovid2

Similar to <code>EuropeCovid</code>, with the following exceptions. Daily death data is obtained from the WHO COVID-19 Explorer as of 05/01/2021. This differs
from the data used in Flaxman2020;textualepidemia, because counts were updated retrospectively by the WHO as new information came
to light. Daily case data is also included from the same source. This data runs from 03/01/2020 until 30/06/2020.

datasets

Flexibly specify and fit Bayesian statistical models for epidemics. 'epidemia' leverages Rs formula interface so
that users can parameterize reproduction numbers and ascertainment rates in terms of predictors. Infections are propagated over
time using self-exciting point processes. Multiple regions can be modeled simultaneously with multilevel models. The models and framework behind
the package are described in Bhatt et al. (2021) <arXiv:2012.00394>. The design of the package has been inspired by, and has borrowed from,
'rstanarm' (Goodrich et al., 2020) <https://mc-stan.org/rstanarm/>. 'rstan' (Stan Development Team, 2020) <https://mc-stan.org/> is used as
the back end for fitting models.
