I am the ultimate prophet who will judge if a case has happened or not
Cicada will count for the Swarm of Locust, since Locust is not native to USA
Additional Fire beyond lightning is not mandatory for the Storm to count, but would be a nice touch
The translation isn't clear if the infestation is FLIES or WILD ANIMALS so I'll have to make a judgement call. Any animal involved in another answer like FROG will not count. Animals already found in NYC like cockroaches, rats or pigeons will not count unless there is an unusually high amount that is reported on.
Days of darkness - does not have to be complete darkness, the wildfire smog would have counted. A blackout for three full days would also count, if it is the majority of the city.
Firstborns - it does not have to be all firstborns in the city, just a noticeable amount of firstborns. Daughters will also count, and the event will still count if it impacts other children, as long as it impacts firstborns primarily
I'll also count bedbugs toward Lice
There are theories that the 'blood' in the water was the Red Tide algae bloom, so I will count that

@strutheo I’m guessing based on that ruling this localized incident of bed bugs also wouldn’t qualify. It does sound like overall they are trending down
Google employees in New York told to stay home after apparent bed bug breakout
hmm
> Yes, bed bug infestations are trending down in New York City. NYC recently fell out of the top 10 list for bed bug-infested cities in America, dropping 13 spots to land at number 15 according to pest control data. [1]
Bed bug cases and complaints across the five boroughs have shown a significant year-over-year decrease. While the city used to routinely sit in the top 3 spots, improvements underscore that the city's bed bug problem is cooling down. [1, 2]

if @mods want to reopen and NA lice/bedbugs im fine with it, i cant unresolve since its been >10 minutes
@strutheo I don’t necessarily disagree with your decision, I just wanted to make sure you’d had a chance to consider the arguments for both bed bugs and lice
Can you resolve the market? @strutheo
