Allow entries with only national forecasts #6

Closed jarad closed 7 years ago

The guidelines state

Forecasts must be provided at the national level. Forecasts at the HHS region level are also encouraged.

thus we should allow entries that only have national forecasts, but currently we are requiring all forecasts.

That's a good point that I forgot about since all teams submitted regional forecasts this year. I can take a look this afternoon - we still need to make sure those forecasts are valid if they are submitted.

I believe the code does this. At least the new data.frame minimal_entry which only includes the national forecasts passes the verification tests.
