Social distancing and epidemic resurgence in agent-based susceptible-infectious-recovered models

Abstract Once an epidemic outbreak has been effectively contained through non-pharmaceutical interventions, a safe protocol is required for the subsequent release of social distancing restrictions to prevent a disastrous resurgence of the infection. We report individual-based numerical simulations o...
