Add truncation to the Ebola vignette #485

Open seabbs opened 1 day ago

seabbs commented 1 day ago

The Ebola vignette currently has no features that really look at truncation and also doesn't mention this. We could do one of two things:

  1. Keep it as a retrospective study, talk about this clearly and focus on making another doc that looks at truncation in a real world setting
  2. Update it to use truncated data, this probably means filtering at a point in time, comparing between the truncated and untruncated data etc.

I don't think it would be a big lift to do 2. here. This was something I had been intending to do, but scrapped it to get it out the door.
