These videos give you the background to do the following exercises. It
39+
would be great if you did some of these before the workshop, but it is
40+
not required.

| Create a model specification of an elaboration of an SEIR model that has been modified for measles (diagram immediately following this box). This modified SEIR model includes a box for vaccinated individuals, $V$, and isolated infectious individuals, $I_\text{iso}$. The force of infection, $\Lambda$, is given by $\frac{\beta I}{N}$, where $N$ is the total number of individuals in the population. The vaccine efficacy is $\epsilon$ and the proportion of exposed individuals who isolate is $\theta$. |

| Simulate one or more of the state variables in one of the above models. A big challenge here will be in choosing default numerical values of the parameters and initial conditions. |

| In doing these exercises you might find it helpful to use the `macpan2` [website](https://canmod.github.io/macpan2) as a reference. Pages that could be particularly useful are the [quick start guide](https://canmod.github.io/macpan2/articles/quickstart) and documentation for the [`mp_tmb_model_spec`](https://canmod.github.io/macpan2/reference/mp_tmb_model_spec), [`mp_per_capita_flow`](https://canmod.github.io/macpan2/reference/mp_per_capita_flow), [`mp_simulator`](https://canmod.github.io/macpan2/reference/mp_simulator), and [`mp_trajectory`](https://canmod.github.io/macpan2/reference/mp_trajectory). |
