#' Estimate Covid2019 outcome probabilities for a population given its age
#' distribution, and age-severity estimates used by LHSTM
#'
#' @description
#' Estimate Covid19 outcome probabilities including hospitalizion|infection,
#' ICU|hospitalization, death|hospitalization, and death|infection, using
#' age-specific outcomes estimates of Pr(Clinical|Infection) from Davies et al.
#' (2020) (with confidence intervals) and point estimates of
#' Pr(hospitalization|clinical), Pr(ICU|hospitalization), and
#' Pr(dead|hospitalization) from Van Zandvoort et al. (2020).
#'
#' Population age distributions can either be taken from the UN World
#' Population Prospects 2019 (WPP2019), or directly supplied by the user.
#'
#' @param x Either an ISO3 country code used to extract age-specific population
#' estimates from the UN World Population Prospects 2019 dataset, \emph{or}, a
#' data.frame containing age categories in the first column and population
#' counts (or proportions) in the second column
#' @param p_type Outcome to estimate (either "p_hosp_inf", "p_icu_hosp",
#' "p_dead_hosp", or "p_dead_inf")
#' @param p_stat Statistic of the severity estimates to use (either "mean",
#' "median", "low_95", "up_95", "low_50", or "up_50")
#'
#' @return
#' Estimated outcome probability (scalar)
