# creating SMR's
data('kentucky')
kentucky = terra::unwrap(kentucky)


kentucky2 = getSMR(kentucky, larynxRates, larynx, 
		regionCode="County")

	dec=-log10(0.5), style='equal', transform='sqrt')
	plot(kentucky2, col=mycol$plot)
	legendBreaks('topleft', mycol)
}

if(require("INLA", quietly=TRUE)) {

if(requireNamespace('INLA')) {
  INLA::inla.setOption(num.threads=2)
  # not all versions of INLA support blas.num.threads
  try(INLA::inla.setOption(blas.num.threads=2), silent=TRUE)
}
