 Good afternoon. This is Dr. Theron Sherman of the SCP Found Foundation. For your safety, please listen to and then destroy this recording regarding SCP-647-470-0. There isn't any objectionable material in the document, and as long as you follow the instructions within as if your life depended on it, you will be just fine, fine, fine. Let's begin. Item number, SCP-647-0. Object Class, Thaumiel. Special Containment Procedures. Currently, the Foundation is cooperating with major world governments and groups of interest in order to rapidly produce SCP-647-0 and administer it to the public. It is imperative that the entire human population receive SCP-647-0. Description. SCP-647-0 is an anomalous fluid medication successfully developed by the Foundation on June 22nd, 2030, with the common name Paganini Oral Medication. When consuming SCP-647-0, humans will rapidly lose the ability to vocalize. Their vocal cords will vibrate, but no sound will be produced. Addendum. General Code for the Silent Era by the Department of Miscommunications, version 12. Reminder. This group is enforced by the SCP Foundation, the Global Occult Coalition, the United Nations, and various other organizations. For the safety of your life and your family's lives, you are to abide by these regulations. 1. You are not to speak no matter how, why, and when you retrieve your dose of Paganini Oral Medication, you are to immediately consume it. 2. Stay calm and always remember that as long as you are quiet, you are safe. If you find someone around you showing signs of extreme distress, quickly establish a 15-meter distance between you and the distressed person to ensure your safety. 3. Do not touch, it is dangerous. 4. Do not fight back, it is useless and dangerous. 5. Do not record or discuss it by any means, including writing, photography, and videography, or your life will be in danger. 6. Continue learning, working, and living normally. 7. It is currently being researched if recordings of a human voice are equally dangerous. Until further notice, do not use any devices that may produce a human voice, such as music players. Remember to destroy this recording after you finish listening to it. 8. This code will be updated by the SCP Foundation as research progresses. Please stay tuned. 9.
