-Estimate cases by date of infection, the time-varying reproduction number, the rate of growth and forecast these estimates into the future by 7 days. Summarise the posterior and return a summary table and plots for reporting purposes. If a `target_folder` is supplied results can be internally saved (with the option to also turn off explicit returning of results). Here we use the default model parameterisation that priorities real-time performance over run-time or other considerations. For other formulations see the documentation for `estimate_infections()`.
