Handle small event sizes and 0 cases #75

Right now, 0 cases occur at small events because of the prevalence. If the prevalence and event size means that there no cases introduced, round up to 1 case introduced and explain it in the blurb.

"Our model uses current data to estimate the number of people with COVID who will attend the event. If <1 person is likely to have COVID, we will round up to 1 infection."

Try updating to 50 (or some other number) simulations for small events

Updated pop_infected to 1 when num_people*prevalence < 1 Still need to add a card that pops up to inform the user when this change is made.

It also does not yet fix the message of Mean of empty slice. which is likely happening due to low prevalence
