Filter observations to restrict the maximum reporting delay

Filter observations to restrict the maximum reporting delay

Usage

enw_delay_filter(obs, max_delay)

Arguments

obs

A data frame containing at least the following variables: reference date (index date of interest), report_date (report date for observations), and confirm (cumulative observations by reference and report date).

max_delay

Numeric defaults to 20. The maximum number of days to include in the delay distribution. Computation scales non-linearly with this setting so consider what maximum makes sense for your data carefully. Note that this is zero indexed and so includes the reference date and max_delay - 1 other days.

Value

A data frame filtered so that dates by report are less than or equal the reference date plus the maximum delay.
