UK health officials are investigating reports surrounding the death of a 28-year-old laboratory worker in Russia.⁠
⁠
Daria Shipilova worked at the Irkutsk Anti-Plague Institute in Siberia and died after developing severe pneumonia from an unknown cause.⁠
⁠
Local reports claimed she became ill after breaking a test tube containing dangerous bacteria, but Russian authorities say no laboratory accident or connection to the pathogens she handled has been established.⁠
⁠
A hospital was quarantined and people who had contact with Daria were placed under medical observation as a precaution.⁠
⁠
The UK Health Security Agency is now seeking further information through international health channels, but has stressed that the risk to the wider UK population remains very low.⁠
⁠
Pneumonic plague is serious, but can be successfully treated with antibiotics when detected early.⁠
⁠
This remains a suspected case. No plague outbreak has been confirmed.⁠
