In John Steinbeck's The Pearl, what events does the bite of the scorpion set in motion?

The bite of the scorpion on the baby of Kino and Juana sets in motion the events of the remainder of the plot.

• When Coyotito screams, his mother tries to suck out the poison and Kino's brother Juan Thomas and his family crowd the entrance to the hut to see what is wrong.
• Juana tells Kino to get the doctor.
• All those who hear Juana tell her that the doctor will not come, so the determined mother says they will go to the doctor themselves.
• A procession is formed as Juan Thomas and his wife and the children and neighbors follow Kino and Juana
• Kino stops at the gate of the doctor, who is not of Kino's race. When a servant appears, Kino tells him why they all have come.
• The doctor, of French descent, will not see the baby. He says, "Have I nothing better to do than cure insect bites for 'little Indians'? I am a doctor not a veterinary[sic]. Has he any money?"
• Because Kino does not have money, he is turned away.
• Angered at this rejection, Kino dives into the sea for a great pearl that will bring a great price.
• Kino eventually finds a beautiful, large pearl; others call it "The Pearl of the World."
• "All manner of people" become interested in Kino--"people with things to sell and favors to ask." Kino's pearl is on the minds of so many people that Kino becomes "curiously every man's enemy."
• Kino begins to plan what he wants for his son and himself in the future.
• The priest arrives, saying that he has learned of Kino's finding a great pearl.
• The doctor later arrives, excusing himself for not seeing Kino in the morning, saying he was out. He gives Coyotito some medicine.
• The neighbors begin to watch Kino and his family to see if owning the pearl changes them. 
• Kino digs a hole inside his hut, and he buries the pearl.
• A thief tries to enter the hut at night and steal the pearl; Kino fights him and the thief flees.
• Kino goes to pearl dealers in order to sell his pearl. But they will not give him what the pearl is worth; so, Kino plans a trip to the capital.
• Juana tries to throw the pearl back into the ocean, but Kino catches her and strikes her in the face with his fist. 
• As Kino walks up the brush line, he is attacked and knocked to his knees. But, Kino manages to fight the thief off and kill him.
• Kino asks his brother Juan Thomas to hide him and his family for the night because his hut has been burned.
• Kino and his family depart and hide in a cave for the night. But, because there have been men tracking him, he leaves Juana and the baby while he goes after these men.
• Kino circles around and comes upon the trackers. Just as he is in midleap, Kino hears a rifle fire. After the rifle fire, is a scream; he kills the shooter and attacks the other two and kills them. 
• When he returns to his wife and child, the baby has been shot.
• With their dead baby, Kino and Juana return to the village.
• They walk to the water's edge, and Kino throws the pearl back into the sea.
