In epiforecasts/EpiNow2: Estimate Real-Time Case Counts and Time-Varying Epidemiological Parameters

Creates a delay distribution as the sum of two other delay distributions.

Description

Usage

## S3 method for class 'dist_spec'
e1 + e2

Arguments

e1	The first delay distribution (of type <dist_spec>) to combine.
e2	The second delay distribution (of type <dist_spec>) to combine.

Value

A delay distribution representing the sum of the two delays

Examples

# A fixed lognormal distribution with mean 5 and sd 1.
dist1 <- LogNormal(
  meanlog = 1.6, sdlog = 1, max = 20
)
dist1 + dist1

# An uncertain gamma distribution with shape and rate normally distributed
# as Normal(3, 0.5) and Normal(2, 0.5) respectively
dist2 <- Gamma(
  shape = Normal(3, 0.5),
  rate = Normal(2, 0.5),
  max = 20
)
dist1 + dist2
