Russia denies report of second plague case
Original: Russia denies second plague case
Russian authorities are denying claims that a second person has been infected with plague, following an earlier confirmed case that prompted health concerns and quarantine measures in the affected region. Officials insist there is no evidence of further spread, but the denial is drawing scrutiny online, with observers questioning whether the country's health system is being fully transparent about the outbreak.
Why now: An earlier plague case put Russian health officials under scrutiny, so their denial of a second infection is being closely watched.
