Russia denies lab leak in suspected pneumonic plague outbreak
Sveriges RadioLO·RU·1 day ago
Russian sanitary authority Rospotrebnadzor issued a statement declaring the sanitary-epidemiological situation calm in the Irkutsk region, including Irkutsk and Shelekhov, with no health risks to the population. The statement appears to be a reassurance response to unspecified concerns, but no specific incident or threat is mentioned. The lack of detail suggests either a routine update or an attempt to counter unverified rumors.
