WHO lacks full picture on suspected plague death in Russia
Original: WHO says it does not have ‘full picture’ from Russia following suspected plague death By Luke Harding ‘Transparent infor
The World Health Organization says it does not have the full picture from Russia after a suspected plague death, warning that transparent information sharing from Moscow is required to conduct a full risk assessment. The UN agency's comments point to gaps in the flow of health data at a moment of heightened concern over a possible outbreak.
Why now: A suspected plague death combined with limited information from Russian authorities has raised international health concerns.
