Twitches only when viewed through the camera feed — in person, the same patient looks completely normal.
This is the camera-only counterpart to the visual-channel Twitching anomaly. The practical lesson is the same either way: a patient who looks fine in person isn't cleared until you've also checked CCTV, because some tells only render on one channel.
The specific recovery outcome for this anomaly hasn't been documented by the community yet — we only publish what's confirmed. What is confirmed: letting an anomaly in usually triggers a Death Ritual, spawns a monster, or turns the patient into a Shapeshifter. A wrong treatment kills an anomaly with no penalty to you (it just lowers your end-of-shift reward), and tasing or shooting a confirmed anomaly nets +2 sanity. Tasing or shooting a normal animal by mistake costs −15 sanity — when in doubt, shutting the window is always the safe move.

The specific recovery outcome for this anomaly isn't documented by the community yet. Treat any confirmed anomaly the same way regardless: a wrong treatment kills them with no penalty to you but lowers your end-of-shift reward, and tasing or shooting a confirmed anomaly gives +2 sanity. When in doubt, shutting the window is always safe.
