Filter diseases from GIDEON database

Description

Filter diseases from GIDEON database

Usage

filter_diseases(
  agent = NULL,
  vector = NULL,
  vehicle = NULL,
  reservoir = NULL,
  country = NULL
)

Arguments

agent	GIDEON agent code - Classification (e.g., virus, parasite) and taxonomic designation.
vector	GIDEON vector code - An arthropod or other living carrier which transports an infectious agent from an infected organism or reservoir to a susceptible individual or immediate surroundings.
vehicle	GIDEON vehicle code - The mode of transmission for an infectious agent. This generally implies a passive and inanimate (i.e., non-vector) mode.
reservoir	GIDEON reservoir code - Any animal, arthropod, plant, soil or substance in which an infectious agent normally lives and multiplies, on which it depends primarily for survival, and where it reproduces itself in such a manner that it can be transmitted to a susceptible host.
country	GIDEON country code - In general, this list of country names corresponds to accepted geographical and political designations. When Country filter is used, it will only retrieve diseases that are endemic to the country.
