set_initial_susceptibility_in_patch(model, ipatch, susc_frac=1.0)[source]#

Set the population susceptibility level at the start of the simulation, in a specific patch. This function randomly selects individuals from the patch and changes their susceptibility to zero, according to the parameter susc_frac.

Parameters:

  • model – The simulation model containing the population and parameters.

  • ipatch (int) – The patch to set susceptibility in

  • susc_frac (float) – The fraction of individuals to keep susceptible.

Return type:

None

Returns:

None
