title: 'cfrnow: Real-Time Case Fatality Ratio via a Mixture-Cure Survival Model'
version: 0.4.0
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.cfrnow
abstract: Estimates a real-time case fatality ratio (CFR) from line-list data using
  a Bayesian mixture-cure survival model, registered as an 'epidist' model type so
  the CFR and the onset-to-death delay both take 'brms' formulas. Each case is fatal
  with probability equal to the CFR and, when fatal, dies at an interval-censored
  onset-to-death delay; cases still alive at the observation cut-off are right-censored,
  which corrects the downward bias of the naive deaths / cases ratio in real time.
  The delay is co-estimated using the 'primarycensored' censored-distribution machinery.
