Abstract
In Spain, the epidemic curve caused by COVID-19 has reached its peak in the last days of March. The implementation of the blockade derived from the declaration of the state of alarm on March 14th has raised a discussion on how and when to deal with the unblocking. In this article we intend to add information that may help using epidemic simulation techniques with ICMs Stochastic Individual Contact Models and several extensions.
