epidemia-package: Flexible Epidemic Modeling with epidemia

Description

The epidemia package allows researchers to flexibly specify and fit Bayesian epidemiological models in the style of Flaxman2020;textualepidemia. The package leverages R's formula interface to parameterize the reproduction rate in terms of covariates, and allows pooling of parameters. The design of the package has been inspired by, and borrowed from, the rstanarm package goodrich_2020epidemia. epidemia uses rstan rstan_2020epidemia as the backend for fitting the models. The primary model fitting function in epidemia is epim.
