Role Count Notes
Research Scientist 10 [#12] Botanists/zoologists/obstetric researchers/neuroscientists; portion of dedicated interdisciplinary team (6–15 FTEs).
Database Analyst / SCP Watchdog 9 [#14] Monitoring analysts for global medical database/watchdog duties (6–12 analysts).

📋 Confidence Notes
Estimates derived from midpoints of wide ranges in analyst notes; medical and containment equipment costs are reasonably grounded but large uncertainty remains in recurring child-care policy choices, regional transport variance, and frequency/severity of surge/exposure events.
