The death of a worker at an anti-plague laboratory in Russia has prompted officials to put at least one hospital facility under quarantine and nearly 200 people reportedly under medical observation as of today.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio said that despite there being “very limited travel between the U.S. and Russia,” if “something like that gets out, it could quickly spread.” So the United States government is “watching and monitoring it closely.”
