The first nation to probably be publicly open about zalgos is coming

United States of America
 * Government
 * Zalgogate (April 2029-March 2030): It concludes on March.
 * Pressure: Riots and protests continue to break out in New York in January and February alone. However that only led to the spread of various riots of conspiracists nationwide, from Atlanta, Orlando and Philadelphia to San Francisco, Portland and Los Angeles, hundred thousands have participated and led to massive property damage in this quarter alone which costs around US$2.3 billion, along with the arrest of ten thousands, thousands of injuries and dozens of deaths from the police. The government is now fully pressured to reveal the truth as a result and by mid-February, it was clear that the President will give out a speech from the White House scheduled on 28th February.
 * Public Speech (28th February 2030): On 28th February, a shocking decision was made by President Rubio publicly. He promises that this is not intentionally giving out panic but to inform that it is now time that the threat must be shown to the public now and that he will allow full declassification of documents by his orders at April (while allowing documents leaked, supported by many officials right now due to panic in New York continuing to accumulate in numbers. Censorship over the Zalgo threat will also cease as the government admits that they played a role in this.
 * PRESIDENT RUBIO: This is the President speaking to the people of the United States. We are sincerely sorry for the total loss of any loved ones that were lost to something that was truly horrifying. I'm sure that you want to know why your own family or friends were missing for months now. You see, there was a threat lurking last year and reported sightings that you might know but we covered it up because we believe that we should not introduce more panic or fear into the common population. The documents that were leaked? They were not a hoax like we told you few months ago, they are classified documents but was given out to someone who was unfit to power. I know this is truly shocking to all of you but the Zalgo myth that has gained attention over the past two years is real as it gets. Now, rioting is not a solution to the end of these monstrosities and dividing ourselves will not do the same as well, it will only incur more panic and the spread of this virus elsewhere. We must unite together and make a huge decision to stop the threat. This is how America is going to work from now on. Let us fight together until we die of this threat. Thank you.
 * Security Enhancement Act of 2030: Security within the CIA is quickly enhanced with the government becoming even more vigilant after two individual leaks last year. A suspicion of Korean workers working towards a leak despite plans to declassify almost all of the research and sightings in April had led to arrests of 91 agents that work for CIA, with most of them being Asian-American. Counterintelligence agents are also deployed to do multiple tests and fluency against all arrested agents. (NPC response needed to see if some are "found guilty")
 * State of emergency is declared across three states (New York, New Jersey, Connecticut) as it isn't just limited to just New York City now.
 * Case of Hughes: Robert Hughes and his own family are no longer under house arrest after about a year. He will be supervised however for about two more years in a controversial decision. The court has also decided to lay off the case entirely on 7th March 2030 in an unanimous decision that the United States had fully admitted to hiding the fact that Zalgos exist and live among humans.
 * Emergency Plan to Escape: You may hear about DEFCON being used frequently but there is another one called COGCON (never heard of it? Wendover Productions duh). In case the level is raised to level one once the threat began to enroach Washington DC, all staff of the White House, along with the Senate, the House of Representatives and the Cabinet, including the President will be relocated to confidential bunkers in which they will respond for the military. There will be time for preparations and once the pandemic is close enough, such as enroaching Baltimore or Alexandria, then evacuation will be necessary, armed by military personnel stationed at the White House that serve as guards of the President.
 * Military
 * Intervention
 * Other operations: As the epidemic of Zalgos began to grow exponentially inside the United States with confirmed million cases, the ZCP ramps up it's strength and funding with the approved 2030 budget going to give out more cash to build better research bases and military personnel distinct from most publicly known miliary branches.
 * Intervention in New York: The war against the Zalgo continue and the ZCP are resorted to killing one by one at long range as they have enough bodies to do sufficient research, however cleanup is sufficient and is mostly urgent for many cases. No-one is allowed to go in and out under this strict curfew and martial law imposed in New York City stll at this quarter of the year.
 * Alleged cases spotted around New York City: "This reminds me of Guillermo del Toro's book, The Strain," said a ZCP member upon discovering the fact that the epidemic had spread into the Old World even further than ever. As some managed to escape without the detection by the ZCP and most government/military officials stationed in the city and now that some had escaped before reanimation inside the city, they have most likely moved to the rest of the Tri-State Area and thus Connecticut, New York and New Jersey had declared state of emergencies publicly. However after the speech was declared by President Rubio, the state of emergency wasn't intended to become a panic situation but to give government some sort of power to keep the threat out and have extra protocols put in place in response.
 * Mali: The ZCP continues to operate in Mali to continue tracing the origins on how Europe, Asia and Africa suddenly got infected with new profound Zalgos onboard.
 * Research
 * Yuri Watney/Subject #1: Kept there.
 * Kevin Spacey: Kept there.
 * Tracing the origins of the African Zalgo: We're still not over with tracing back the origin yet, we have to get even closer by hunting down the Zalgos of Mali to confirm if the Panama Canal is the one to blame. They turn to other West African countries to do a search on some ships that had arrived few months ago on the shores of the continent, although this would also raise the concern of other nations in West Africa of being "spied upon" but this is the only way to find if there are traces of this thick liquid or blood as most Zalgos have it. If it all fails, then we have to withdraw the plan on West Africa and instead find out where the pathogen came from.
 * Infected/Reanimated: It seems that our bases are becoming more potent and infected by containing infected people that have being bitten inside the lab rather than being contained. They are still being observed for any behavioural changes while a move to set up more bases that are "sterile" and filled with new workers are underway, such as a base in Puerto Rico which is scheduled to be opened on April 2030. With events like this unfolding, our research have slowed down and that our study is almost finished. The question is now basically, is there a cure to this?
 * Other bodies: Nothing happens.
 * Economy
 * Early 2030s economic depression: The stock market itself crashed entirely, the major financial hub of thr United States. New York has succumbed to multiple curfew and martial law. Unemployment is now soaring, the economy itself might not hold up for welfare anymore.
 * Diplomacy
