SCP-006

== Under direct orders of the founder, access is limited to those with Overseer clearance ==
Overseer Clearance Granted
Item #: SCP-006
Object Class: Safe
Special Containment Procedures: Whereas the nature 
of SCP-006 does not warrant any extensive containment, a certain level 
of secrecy is necessary regarding the object's existence and properties,
 for obvious reasons. The following procedures are required not for 
personnel safety, but to deny or hide knowledge of SCP-006's effects 
from the personnel who interact with it.
1: All personnel interacting with SCP-006 in any physical way are 
required to wear modified class VI BNC suits. Before personnel are 
allowed to perform procedures, they must be briefed with Material 
SCP-006B or SCP-006C. SCP-006A Briefing is the correct one and is 
restricted to only those with O5 clearance. To assure personnel are 
wearing suits properly, they are to be submerged into a pool of water. 
Any air bubbles spotted signify a leak in the suit.
2: Procedures with SCP-006 are to be carried out under extreme 
surveillance. In case of contact with SCP-006, the commander in charge 
will announce Procedure 006-Xi-12, which the personnel have been briefed
 to believe to mean high toxicity is present and they must evacuate.
3: Any procedure in which liquid is acquired from SCP-006 must be 
approved by three (3) O5 level personnel. The liquid is to be 
transferred in a Quad-Sealant Container and under armed guard.
4: If at any time personnel come into contact with SCP-006 or liquid 
from SCP-006, they are to be confined and terminated after sufficient 
studies are done. Due to the nature of SCP-006, the most effective 
termination method is incineration. (For full report, see file 
SCP006-TerO5)
Description: SCP-006 is a very small spring located 
60 km west of Astrakhan. Due to political reasons, Foundation Command 
was aware of its existence since the 19th century, but unable to secure 
it until 1991. On the spot of the spring, a chemical factory has been 
constructed as a disguise, with the majority of laborers under 
Foundation and/or Russian control. The liquid emitted from the spring 
has been chemically identified as simple mineral water in 1902, but has 
the unusual property of "health".
Ingesting the liquid produces the following properties in human 
beings: the ability to regenerate DNA damaged by sufficient duplication,
 heightened excitement of cellular duplication, vastly improved 
abilities in the repair of damaged tissue, and a frightening increase in
 the effectiveness of the human immune system. Upon testing the liquid 
on animal subjects, hostile bacteria and viral agents were destroyed 
immediately. Many reptiles and birds were unaffected, while higher 
primates experienced the same benefits as humans.
