Here we propose a self-organized epidemic model with multi-scale control policies that are relaxed or strengthened depending on the extent of the epidemic outbreak. We show that optimizing the balance between the effects of epidemic control and the associated socio-economic cost is strongly linked to the stringency of control measures. We also show that non-pharmaceutical interventions acting at different spatial scales, from creating social bubbles at the household level to constraining mobility between different cities, are strongly interrelated. We find that policy functionality changes for better or worse depending on network connectivity, meaning that some populations may allow for less restrictive measures than others if both have the same resources to respond to the evolving epidemic. info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/DGA/E36-17R-FENOL info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MICINN/PID2020-113582GB-I00 info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MINECO/PGC2018-094754-B-C21 info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/UZ-IBERCAJA/224220 info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess by-nc-nd http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/es/ 7.8 2022 PHYSICS, MATHEMATICAL 1 / 56 = 0.018 2022 Q1 T1 MATHEMATICS, INTERDISCIPLINARY APPLICATIONS 3 / 107 = 0.028 2022 Q1 T1 PHYSICS, MULTIDISCIPLINARY 11 / 85 = 0.129 2022 Q1 T1 1.393 2022 Applied Mathematics 2022 Q1 Mathematical Physics 2022 Q1 Statistical and Nonlinear Physics 2022 Q1 Physics and Astronomy (miscellaneous) 2022 Q1 Mathematics (miscellaneous) 2022 Q1 11.8 2022 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Soriano-Paños, David (orcid)0000-0002-6388-4056 Arenas, Alex Gómez-Gardeñes, Jesús Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0001-5204-1937 2003 395 Universidad de Zaragoza Dpto.
