⚡ Cost Scenarios
📊 Baseline (baseline) $10.8M/yr
75.0% probability / year
Normal year with ongoing containment and monitoring, no major breaches or large-scale exposures.
routine containment regular field responses ongoing research operations
🚨 Minor Incident $11.3M/yr
20.0% probability / year +$500K vs baseline
Increased ritual activity / regional surge requiring extra deployments, additional amnestics and modest overtime.
ritual surge multiple localized events increased public contacts
🚨 Major Breach $15.8M/yr
5.0% probability / year +$5.0M vs baseline
Uncontrolled breach or high-profile exposure requiring emergency mobilization, mass amnestics, large-scale intelligence and PR/containment operations.
large-scale exposure high-visibility public incident coordinated GoI-435 retaliation

📋 Confidence Notes
Estimates are based on documented containment requirements and realistic market rates, but event frequency, geographic spread of GoI-435, and policy choices (euthanasia vs long-term care) are uncertain, so medium confidence.
