Description: Within epidemic outbreaks, infections grow and decline
        differently between regions, and the velocity of spatial spread
        differs between countries. The swash library offers a set of
        model-based analyses for these topics. Spread velocity may be
        analysed with the Swash-Backwash Model for the Single Epidemic
        Wave and corresponding functions for bootstrap confidence
        intervals, country comparison, and visualization of results.
        Differences in epidemic growth between regions may be analysed
        using logistic growth models, exponential growth models, Hawkes
        processes and breakpoint analyses. All functionalities are
        accessed by the class "infpan" for infections panel data
        defined in this package, which is built from a data.frame
        provided by the user.
