Vivax model

The Vivax models replaces Falciparum-specific wihtin-host models. [As of version 36] parasite densities are not modelled.

Vivax broods

In the model, a brood is the set of hypnozoites resulting from an innoculation, plus an associated blood stage.

The number of hypnozoite releases is fixed at the time of infection (see sampleNHypnozoites()). The time of each release is sampled (via sampleReleaseDelay()) to be a certain number of days after the latent period.
