Add an analysis of herd immunity and how to get there #36

This section could allow the user to set a target level of herd immunity, and then examine how different isolation tactics affect the timing and death toll of reaching that level.

Even better would be allowing demographic-specific tactics (e.g. infect 20-40 year olds) and then using demographic-specific mortality rates.
