Abstract
- The June software package is an open-source framework for the detailed simulation of epidemics based on social interactions in a virtual population reflecting age, gender, ethnicity, and socio-economic indicators in England. In this paper, we present a new version of the framework specifically adapted for Germany, which allows the simulation of the entire German population using publicly available information on households, schools, universities, workplaces, and mobility data for Germany. Moreover, JuneGermany incorporates testing and vaccination strategies within the population as well as the simultaneous handling of several different virus strains. First validation tests of the framework have been performed for the state of Rhineland Palatinate based on data collected between October 2020 and December 2020 and then extrapolated to March 2021, i.e. the end of the second wave.<br />Comment: 10 pages, 11 figures
