💨 Abstract

A suspected plague outbreak in Russia has led to one death and 189 people quarantined in Irkutsk, Siberia. The outbreak is linked to the death of a laboratory assistant, Daria Shipilova, at the Irkutsk Anti-Plague Research Institute. Officials have canceled public events and restricted travel. Reports suggest a cover-up, with conflicting stories about the infection source.
