This is in line with the discussion in #509 and renames
simulate_infections
toforecast_infections
. This now follows the same terminology ofsimulate_secondary
andforecast_secondary
: a forecast is done from a fit to existing data, a simulation from first principles. We could also do it the other way round and change the..._secondary
function names but this version made more sense to me.Deprecation of
simulate_infections
is transient until a new function simulating from given parameters / initial conditions has been implemented.
