@thetimes: Russia suspected plague outbreak — how worried should we be?⁠ ⁠ A researcher at a Russian institute in Siberia that specialises in dangerous infectious diseases has reportedly died of unexplained pneumonia. Local media has said she may have been exposed to the bacterium that causes plague — and that pneumonic plague may have been the cause.⁠ ⁠ There is so far no official confirmation that plague caused her death, but other workers are in quarantine and under observation.⁠ ⁠ But how dangerous would an outbreak of pneumonic plague be if the reports prove correct?⁠ ⁠ #russia #plague #researcher #siberia #worldnews
