Region population size #44

Closed truEngineer closed 4 years ago

truEngineer commented 4 years ago

In the example for one region (Sachsen), the population of all of Germany is used N_population = 83e6. Is this parameter important in the model, taking into account the forecasts obtained in this example?

This shouldn't be the case, but it doesn't make a difference in the results, as the case numbers are well below the 'herd immunity'
