This inconvenience does not occur with function geese in package
geepack. If you're using function gee in package gee, extract the
components you want from the fitted object:
> library(gee)
> library(MASS)
> data(OME)
> fm <- gee(cbind(Correct, Trials-Correct) ~ Loud + Age + OME, id = ID,
+ data = OME, family = binomial, corstr = "exchangeable")
[1] "Beginning Cgee S-function, @(#) geeformula.q 4.13 98/01/27"
[1] "running glm to get initial regression estimate"
[1] -5.90984676 0.15516993 0.01876291 -0.07569691 -0.31660542
