Description: This package provides a flexible statistical framework for
generating optimal epidemiological interventions that are
designed to minimize the total expected cost of an emerging
epidemic while simultaneously propagating uncertainty regarding
underlying disease parameters through to the decision process
via Bayesian posterior inference.  The strategies produced
through this framework are adaptive: vaccination schedules are
iteratively adjusted to reflect the anticipated trajectory of
the epidemic given the current population state and updated
parameter estimates.
