Re-emergence of respiratory syncytial virus following the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States: a modeling study

This repo contains the codes for https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.07.19.21260817v1

1. Download parameters and codes in SimpleModel file. Run the simple-age-structure model to generate simulated epidemic data.
2. If you have inpatient data or birth cohort observations, using the last chunk of code in simple-age-structure model to fit to your observation.
3. Using the parameters you get and run the forward simulation by changing the code results <- ode(y=yinit.vector, t=my_times,
   func=simple_model, # your new models. The three .R files in the main page corresponding to three scenarios in the paper parms=parms ) # your new parameter set
