OutbreakIndividual¶
The OutbreakIndividual intervention class introduces contagious diseases that are compatible with the simulation type to existing individuals using the individual targeted features configured in the appropriate event coordinator.
Note
Parameters are case-sensitive. For Boolean parameters, set to 1 for true or 0 for false. JSON does not permit comments, but you can add “dummy” parameters to add contextual information to your files.
Warning
The event containing the outbreak “intervention” must be the last one listed in the campaign file or none of the disease control interventions will take place.
The table below describes all possible parameters with which this class can be configured. The JSON example that follows shows one potential configuration.
Parameter | Data type | Minimum | Maximum | Default | Description | Example |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Ignore_Immunity | boolean | NA | NA | 1 | Individuals will be force-infected (with a specific strain) regardless of actual immunity level when set to true (1). | {
"Intervention_Config": {
"Antigen": 0,
"Genome": 0,
"class": "OutbreakIndividual",
"Ignore_Immunity": 0
}
}
|
Antigen | integer | 0 | 10 | 0 | The antigenic ID of the outbreak infection. | {
"Intervention_Config": {
"Antigen": 0,
"Genome": 0,
"Outbreak_Source": "PrevalenceIncrease",
"class": "OutbreakIndividual"
}
}
|
Genome | integer | -2.15E+0 | 2.15E+0 | 0 | The genetic ID of the outbreak infection. | {
"Intervention_Config": {
"Antigen": 0,
"Genome": 0,
"Outbreak_Source": "PrevalenceIncrease",
"class": "OutbreakIndividual",
"Incubation_Period_Override": 0
}
}
|
Incubation_Period_Override | integer | -1 | 2.15E+0 | -1 | The incubation period, in days, that infected individuals will go through before becoming infectious. This value overrides the incubation period set in the configuration file. Set to -1 to honor the configuration parameter settings. | {
"Incubation_Period_Override": 0
}
|
Ignore_Immunity | boolean | NA | NA | 1 | Individuals will be force-infected (with a specific strain) regardless of actual immunity level when set to true (1). | {
