AnimalFeedKill

The AnimalFeedKill intervention class imposes node-targeted mortality to a vector that feeds on animals.

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.

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
Killing_Config JSON object NA NA NA The configuration of killing efficacy of the targeted stage. Specify how this effect decays over time using one of the Waning effect classes.
{
    "Killing_Config": {
        "Box_Duration": 3650, 
        "Initial_Effect": 0.53429, 
        "class": "WaningEffectBox"
    }
}
New_Property_Value string NA NA NA An optional IndividualProperty key:value pair that will be assigned when the intervention is distributed. See NodeProperties and IndividualProperties parameters for more information. Generally used to indicate the broad category of health care cascade to which an intervention belongs to prevent individuals from accessing care through multiple pathways. For example, if an individual must already be taking a particular medication to be prescribed a new one.
{
    "New_Property_Value": "InterventionStatus:None"
}
Intervention_Name string NA NA NA The optional name used to refer to this intervention as a means to differentiate it from others that use the same class.
{
    "Intervention_Name":"Diagnostic_Sample"
}
Cost_To_Consumer float 0 999999 10 The unit cost per vector control (unamortized).
{
    "Cost_To_Consumer": 8
}
Disqualifying_Properties string NA NA NA A list of IndividualProperty key:value pairs that cause an intervention to be aborted (persistent interventions will stop being distributed to individuals with these values). See NodeProperties and IndividualProperties parameters for more information. Generally used to control the flow of health care access. For example, to prevent the same individual from accessing health care via two different routes at the same time.
