Well according to Dr. Clefs information, 049 thought that the camp members are part of his staff or assistants so it kind of makes sense that he would not attack or kill them, plus him finding out about the 3008-2s makes them a much higher priority from his perspective if that makes sense

[@WiseWordsbyWiki]

Theory: The pestilence is the ability/chance of a human to become an anomaly, so those in the infinite Ikea are "immune" as nothing can effect them within the ikea besides death. Once a human is an anomaly they either no longer register as human to the doc as they have changed so much(Tunnel Monster, Cain, etc) or they are simply a late stage infection as they are only a puppet to an anomaly(Flesh That Hates, When Day Breaks victims, etc) So if Ikea staffers are transformed human victims that register as late stage infection to him and as those in Ikea can only be effected if they die so they are "immune". SCP has a lower rate of those who could potentially become an anomaly as they know about the anomalies and know how to prevent themselves from becoming effected. On the other hand, D-class who nearly always are seen as infected as they are put in situations where they are far more likely to be effected or become an anomaly.

[@Hylander27]

hmm I really like that Theory. It would fit well with the rest of the universe and provided answers to some of the anomaly origins. Omg! what if that's why SCP-682 hates humans so much!

[@leion800]

I thought the pestilence was pain. Remember the chimp he cured. It was in a blissful state. The zombies being the result of a botched attempt to cure humans.

[@gastonfourt5363]

I think The Pestilence is Suffering. Or some form of human negativity that can supposedly turn a person devoid of the joys of being a human. At least in the perspective of the Doctor. Normally human negativity doesn't mutate creatures into anomalies, but I think that some anomalies portray a rather concentrated form of human suffering. Take the amalgamations of When Day Breaks, or the "horrifying malformations" of the "Ikea Employees" with their aggressive behavior.

[@WiseWordsbyWiki]

@@gastonfourt5363 I think the issue with it being suffering would be that not everyone has the pestilence in the docs eyes and that he finds the scp, or at least the staff remarkable pestilence free. So there has to be something that makes it a) not applicable to everyone and b) something that would be less likely to be present in the scp personal without the scp foundation realizing they were. I feel like suffering is to broad for anyone to really be immune, while I can see the chance of someone becoming an anomaly fluctuating depending on circumstance. Plus that might explain the idea of it being the "great dying" as in humans becoming rare as more and more become anomalies and not human.

[@VestedUTuber]

1. 682 is a unique case, since he poses such a huge threat. 2. The problem is all the dangerous entities that live in the backrooms. They're not suitable test subjects, so 049 would have to resort to experimenting on the surviving humans. 3. That's the thing, 049 IS sane, he's just very secretive and cryptic about what he's working to cure. In another video he mentions that in order to protect both himself and others he cannot talk about certain things, which suggests there may be a memetic factor to the Pestilence. Also, 914 is unpredictable, you're not guaranteed to get your desired result out of it.

[@Darkhawk501]

In my opinion if I were the guy in charge of watching the plague doctor, I would do the same thing. However I would hear him out first of what his perception of pestilence is, then talk about what his work is doing to the people in a third person perspective. I would send him to ikea but with a LOT more medical tools and tell him about the actual situation and that if he could find a way to make the staff human, alive, and well by modern standards of society; then he could have an audience with the head directors of the SCP foundation to explain his theory.

[@sandeepgill9975]

He doesn’t tell you directly what the pestilence is, he just says “it’s really bad” and that’s it. He turns people to zombies. That’s what he does. And also he can’t do anything with the staff because they’re just skin, and 049 has to rearrange organs

[@Shady_Doctor]

Now this is an intriguing tale. I need more! Is there more? It's got quite a cast. And such a noteworthy one. The Plague Doctor actually making a good hero, since there's no one for him to murder/warp. Spanko, Lord Blackwood, The Eye Pods, all lovable characters! Ferdinand is a concerning wild card. The Possessive Mask as a villain. And the sun as a dangerous force that's providing much for the protagonists and antagonist to build a story upon.

There’s only what 12 pills though? 😅

[@michaelakadap924]

Yeah the pills are not unlimited, and if the foundation could’ve copied it in someway they would’ve already done it. The pills are only used for extreme circumstances and even then who knows what might happen. Imagine what would happen on the dimension where the sun turns everybody into a gelatin. Animals humans insects are conjoined into one lump of mass. What could potentially happen if it Where to take the pill.

[@lokiruiz2246]

@@jaykay8426 Another theory. The pestilence is a high form of mutation. That in the universe where 049 might've originated from. It was a disease. Causing people to mutate into a species seperate from his own. as perhaps where he originated from. Everyone looked alot like him. Though what ever this pestilence was caused them to mutate into more humanoid entities. With actual facial features rather then a mask for a face. Which is why 049 mistakes any humanoid other then himself. Has the pestilence.

[@nevadaaguilar2062]

I read somewhere that SCP-343 (God) spoke with 049 once. He deduced that the “great pestilence” the plague doctor spoke of was humanity’s free will, and the plague doctor was *very* upset by this and kicked him out of his containment cell.

[@beniron5807]

A+. This can be a huge series with so many possibilities. Aside from the possibility we may learn something new about both SCP's. (Like once the Doctor becomes too powerful, the Ikea starts to show that it has a form of sentience and starts creating Docter Proof employees). There is also a possibility that the Plague Doctor's converted employee Zombies are way too powerful and organized that he starts creating an organized map under control and protection of his ever-expanding army to the point that he starts finding MULTIPLE EXISTS (3008 exists in every dimension, right?). The Doctor could be..........the Infinite Plague Doctor. Find a new exit, use his army to locate and rescue the Plague Doctor of that dimension, take him back to Ikea to help in 3008. Every Doctor added increases Zombie production and increases troop count. All while creating a zealous loyal society who will do anything for their savior. So, um. More please.
