epidemiological-week v1.0.2

An epidemiological week, commonly referred to as an epi week or a CDC week, is simply a standardized method of counting weeks to allow for the comparison of data year after year.

Definition

The first epi week of the year ends, by definition, on the first Saturday of January, as long as it falls at least four days into the month. Each epi week begins on a Sunday and ends on a Saturday.

Usage

import epi from 'epidemiological-week'

epi.calculate('2006-12-31')  //{year: 2007, week: 1}
epi.calculate('2007-01-07')  //{year: 2007, week: 2}
epi.calculate('2016-01-01')  //{year: 2015, week: 52}
epi.calculate('2016-01-03')  //{year: 2016, week: 1}
epi.calculate('2016-11-13')  //{year: 2016, week: 46}

epi.calculate('12-31-2006', 'MM-DD-YYYY')  //{year: 2007, week: 1}
epi.calculate('31-12-2006', 'DD-MM-YYYY')  //{year: 2007, week: 1}

//Special dates
//These dates can not be found on epi calendar, so for now just give it -1
epi.calculate('2008-12-28')  //{year: -1, week: -1}
epi.calculate('2014-12-28')  //{year: -1, week: -1}
epi.calculate('2009-01-02')  //{year: -1, week: -1}
