Age-specific hospitalisation, ICU and death probabilities #53

Closed wfmackey closed 4 years ago

wfmackey commented 4 years ago

We haven't really used the patient outcomes data, but we will need to in the report. At the moment, as far as I can see, hospital etc rates are a single integer:

$p_asympto
[1] 0.48

$p_critical
[1] 0.02

$p_death
[1] 0.01

Can we add age-specific outcome probabilities?

(this was a key note from Tony Blakely's review of Chapters 1-3 and looking at the model defaults)

Could just use 'best estimates' from CDC, Table 1: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/hcp/planning-scenarios.html#box
