enable_transmission_bias

Syntax

enable_transmission_bias = <value>

Parameters

<value>

Whether to enable transmissions to take age-bias into account.

Description

This simulation property enables transmission in places to take age-bias into account. This is enabled by default, allowing places to set an same_age_bias value to set the tendency of agents of similar age to interact within a given place.

This property is set to 1 (true) or 0 (false).

Examples

The following simulation disables age-bias during transmissions.

simulation {
    locations = Allegheny_County_PA
    start_date = 2020-Jan-01
    end_date = 2020-Dec-31
    enable_transmission_bias = 0
}
