The Screwfly Solution by James Tiptree Jr. (Alice Sharpton)

I literally just finished listening to this story on an audio drama podcast, and I'm very curious to discuss it while it's still fresh in my mind. I'm not the best with analyzing fiction myself, so I apologize in advance if I get some details wrong.

This short story is told from the POV of multiple characters, and concerns the global outbreak of a mysterious disease that causes men to vilonently lash out and murder women. Over the course of the story, you slowly learn a little more about what the disease is, but the author doesn't exactly spell everything out for the reader.

Around the story's climax, one of the central characters, Alan, comes home to his wife, Anne and daughter, Amy, having caught the disease himself, and murderers his own daughter (as it's strongly implied) Anne eventually goes into hiding herself, out of fear of falling victim to carriers of the disease, and that is where the story concludes.

I thought the premise of this story was quite fascinating and disturbing. This is the first story by Alice Sharpton I've ever come across, who was one of the earliest noteable women to write sci-fi-horror. To those who have read it, what are your thoughts on this story, and what did you take away from reading it?

Edit: How embarrassing. I meant to type Alice Sheldon, not Sharpton.
