Объект №: SCP-3276
Класс объекта: Кетер
Особые условия содержания: Сетевые боты Фонда ведут поиск, а также удаляют упоминания The Healing Company и принадлежащую ей рекламу в социальных сетях. Публикации с личных или бизнес-аккаунтов отслеживаются, а владельцев последних, их расширенную семью и окружение проверяют на наличие экземпляров SCP-3276-1.
При обнаружении одного или нескольких субъектов, подверженных SCP-3276 и беременных SCP-3276-1, оперативники Фонда отрезают доступ к связи между ними и компанией, а также организовывают группу поддержки под прикрытием жертв многоуровневых маркетинговых схем. Ввиду того, что стандартные процедуры обработки амнезиаками наносят вред беременным и родившим пациентам1, в упомянутых группах им даются рекомендации на прохождение терапевтических процедур до тех пор, пока эффекты SCP-3276 не ослабнут и субъекты не смогут совершить осознанный выбор касательно своего плода. Выживаемость SCP-3276-1, прошедших подобную процедуру в первые месяцы беременности, составляет более 80%. Однако, ввиду временны́х ограничений, после 8 месяца выживаемость резко снижается, после 10 месяца она составляет всего 9%.
После рождения, экземпляры SCP-3276-1 не демонстрируют аномальных свойств, вследствие чего субъектам позволяется оставить свою копию по желанию. Среди близких и родственников пострадавших распространяются легенды-прикрытия о сексуальных контактах последних. В случае, если беременность субъекта без воздействия SCP-3276 была бы анатомически невозможна, их следует убедить в необходимости посещения семейных встреч в группах поддержки, а после конспиративно обработать их амнезиаками.
Описание: SCP-3276 — это многоуровневая маркетинговая компания под названием The Healing Company. Компания занимается продажей разнообразной якобы лекарственной продукции. Польза для здоровья множества из продуктов не имеет практически никаких научных доказательств. Среди них: бутилированная щелочная вода, ароматерапевтические диффузоры эфирных масел и пищевые заменители с различными растительными экстрактами.
SCP-3276's anomalous effect manifests within a variable amount of the subject's initial purchases of bulk product from The Healing Company, sometimes as early as their first purchase. Upon completion of the order, the subject becomes pregnant (the corresponding fetus is hereby dubbed SCP-3276-1). If the subject does not have a uterus, they will manifest a uterus-like organ which SCP-3276-1 will inhabit, receive sustenance through and grow in. SCP-3276-1 is an identical genetic clone of the subject. Pregnancy with SCP-3276-1 proceeds normally until the approximate date of birth, upon which point SCP-3276-1 will not undergo the process of natural childbirth at any point, regardless of whether or not the subject possesses the necessary anatomy.
As SCP-3276-1 continues to grow within the subject's body, it damages them according to the increase in SCP-3276-1's size and nutrition requirements. Death will occur if subject is left unattended for an extended period of time under the effects of SCP-3276; the most common cause of death is malnutrition. When confronted with proof of the pregnancy's anomalous length and negative effects upon their health, subjects will insist that it is a consequence of lack of a variety of pseudoscientific supplements. Subjects will then attempt to compensate this perceived issue by purchasing more product from SCP-3276, while continuing to market the virtues of said products and attempting to sell them as far as their condition will allow them to. If forced to undergo surgical childbirth or abortion, and/or upon being separated from SCP-3276 products, subjects become depressed and despondent to the point of lacking the energy to perform basic self-maintenance routines; this depression, though potentially lethal, has been found to be largely mitigated if the subject is allowed to make a decision regarding SCP-3276-1 upon being separated from SCP-3276 products for a lengthy period of time.
SCP-3276 spreads by both word-of-mouth and aggressive marketing campaigns on social media websites. This marketing contains no anomalous propagation properties, and primarily targets widowers, divorcees, spouses of military personnel and young women in the United States of America with an income averaging $12,500 a year. Attempts to communicate with the contact information provided in SCP-3276's advertisements have proven unfruitful, with all queries except explicit interest in becoming a contractor being summarily ignored. Interrogation with subjects of SCP-3276's effects have so far revealed that none of them have met an executive for The Healing Company in person, and all referrals, when provided, have only led to other subjects affected by SCP-3276.
Recovery Log 3276:
SCP-3276 was initially detected by Agent Rodríguez in March of 2015 in █████, Kansas, as it affected her acquaintances accrued during her deployment in a civilian cover. Initial containment was established under the belief that SCP-3276 propagated memetically.
Nine civilian subjects were found to be affected by SCP-3276-1, with pregnancy terms varying from eight to eleven months. All subjects' homes were in a state of varying disrepair due to most of their daily routine being comprised of self-maintenance through the utilization of products from The Healing Company. Subjects universally suffered from malnutrition, chronic fatigue, irritability and had become isolated from their friends and family. Subjects pregnant from nine months onward had difficulties moving and presented muscle mass atrophy from carrying pregnancy weight without satisfying the corresponding nutritional requirements; subject at eleven months of pregnancy was incapable of moving on her own, and presented a constant state of distress from the resulting lack of capability to self-apply The Healing Company products.
Civilians were treated with standard antimemetics and a series of cesarean surgeries; only two of the affected subjects survived the treatment. Agent Rodríguez was initially quarantined with the two survivors due to symptoms associated with isolation from SCP-3276, but was later released after it was determined that SCP-3276 lacks anomalous memetic capabilities.
Agent Rodríguez requested a short leave upon exiting quarantine, citing the loss of her civilian acquaintances to SCP-3276 as grounds for bereavement. Upon examination by on-site therapists, she was determined to be suffering from major depressive disorder and post-traumatic stress disorder, and was instead granted extended medical leave on the condition that she attend a weekly therapy session.
