⚡ Cost Scenarios
📊 Baseline (baseline) $672K/yr
89.0% probability / year
Normal year with no major incidents; routine monitoring, research operations, MTF readiness and scheduled training only.
no incidents regular research and monitoring scheduled MTF readiness
🚨 Minor Incident $698K/yr
8.0% probability / year +$26K vs baseline
Low-severity behavioral activation or minor containment incident requiring an escort, extra therapy, and limited PR/legal support.
ad-hoc therapy/crisis sessions single MTF mobilization small PR/legal response
🚨 Surgical Removal $732K/yr
2.0% probability / year +$60K vs baseline
Planned or emergency surgical attempt to remove SCP-7395 requiring OR time, specialists, and post-op care.
decision to attempt removal medical emergency requiring surgery
🚨 Major Breach $1.1M/yr
1.0% probability / year +$430K vs baseline
Significant containment or site-level incident (e.g., breach at another site) causing large-scale MTF deployment, extended containment measures, relocation or major PR/legal costs.
site-wide containment breach prolonged MTF operations major public exposure
