plot.incidence: Visualise disease incidence.

Description

Plots a comparison between the smoothed daily incidence function and actual incidence.

Usage

# S3 method for incidence
plot(x, level = 0.95, ...)

Arguments

x

An incidence object.

level

The desired confidence interval width.

...

Arguments passed to plot.

Value

An object of class ggplot.

Details

This function generates a plot from the cumulative incidence object. The incidence rate per year of the registry is shown in red. Mean incidence rate is shown as a solid blue line, with the confidence interval shown in dashed blue lines. The smooth fitted to the cumulative incidence data is shown in green.
