calc_health_risk: Risk calculation: health

In KWB-R/kwb.qmra: QMRA (quantitative microbial risk assessment)

Description

Risk calculation: health

Usage

calc_health_risk(
  infectionRisk_perYear = 9.5 * 10^-4,
  infection_to_illness = 0.7,
  diseaseBurden_dalyPerCase = 1.5 * 10^-3,
  fraction_population = 1,
  target_dalyPerYearPerPerson = 1/1e+06
)

Arguments

infectionRisk_perYear	as retrieved by calc_infection_risk()$events$infectionRisk_perYear or user defined input (default: 9.5 * 10 ^ - 4 infections/year)
infection_to_illness	probability of illness given infection (default: 0.7, i.e. 70 percent illness probability giving infection)
diseaseBurden_dalyPerCase	disabled adjusted life years per case. Value depends on multiple parameters such as illness type (default: 1.5*10 ^ -3)
fraction_population	fraction of population at risk of getting the illness (default: 1, i.e. 100 percent of population can possibly get the illness, worst-case assumption assuming no prior immunization!)
target_dalyPerYearPerPerson	target disabled adjusted life years (DALY) per person per year (default: 1/1000000 DALY per per person per year, WHO standard)

Value

data frame with input parameters and calculated health risk outputs
