⚡ Cost Scenarios
📊 Baseline (baseline) $3.3B/yr
94.5% probability / year
Normal operational year with steady screening, device maintenance, research, and ongoing healthcare impacts without major incidents.
steady incidence no major media/panic events no large-scale prevalence change
🚨 Minor Incident $3.4B/yr
5.0% probability / year +$86.0M vs baseline
Localized spike in severe episodes, temporary media attention and increased ER load requiring surge response and extra enforcement/PR work.
localized outbreak/spike viral media exposure temporary supply chain pressure
🚨 Major Breach $4.3B/yr
0.5% probability / year +$1.0B vs baseline
Widespread escalation (higher prevalence or synchronous multi-region activations) causing mass-casualty response, large contingency draws, and heavy legal/compensation outlays.
mass activation nationwide panic/exposure significant increase in severity or prevalence

📋 Confidence Notes
Estimates are low-confidence due to high uncertainty in prevalence trajectories, R&D outcomes, behavioral compliance, wide ranges in analyst estimates, and the anomalous nature of SCP-6377; many items are order-of-magnitude approximations.
