Questions raised over Russia reporting pneumonic plague to WHO

Original: Has Russia notified WHO under the International Health Regulations? Pneumonic plague is a notifiable event If this is pn

Questions are being raised about whether Russia has notified the World Health Organization of a suspected pneumonic plague case, as required under the International Health Regulations. Pneumonic plague is a notifiable disease, meaning lab-confirmed cases obligate member states to inform the WHO promptly. Commenters are demanding clarity on whether that obligation has been met.

Why now: Concern that a potentially lab-confirmed pneumonic plague case in Russia may not have been reported to WHO as international health rules require.
