Data and code repository for study aiming to understand ESBL carriage in Blantyre, Malawi
# blantyreESBL
The blantyreESBL R package is a repository for data generated as part of
a study into carriage of resistant bacteria in Blantyre, Malawi. It also
includes reproducible analysis script for three manuscripts arising from
the study:

### Installing and accessing data
If you just want the data, then all the data to replicate the analysis
are bundled with the package. To install the package from GitHub:
``` r
install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("
github.com")
```
The various data objects are described in the
pkgdown site for this
package
here,
and available via R in the usual way (i.e. `?btESBL_participants` brings
up the definitions for the `btESBL_participants` data. They are all lazy
loaded so will be available for use immediately; they all start with
`btESBL_` to make …
