Reference: SCP-203 is currently responsible for the deaths of two personnel. One D-class personnel and Dr. ██████████. The D-class subject exposed to SCP-203, placed within his pocket, expressed signs of paranoia shortly after pocketing the object.

When additional personnel restrained the subject, he made claims that Dr. ██████████ was going to poison him, then lashed out, screaming that they were all after him, and that they would kill him. After resisting attempts to restrain him, subject was then terminated. Additional tests were performed with D-class personnel. When parted with SCP-203, subjects eventually returned to a normal state of mind.

Attempts to destroy SCP-203 thus far have not yielded results, and, seeing as the object does not pose an active threat, has been classified as Safe.
