#### N wk ahead inc inf

This target is the number of incident (weekly) infections predicted by the model during the week
that is N weeks after `model_projection_date`.

A week-ahead scenario should represent the total number of new infections
occurring within a given epiweek (from Sunday through Saturday, inclusive).

be evaluated against observations.
Projections of infections are optional.
