What is the U.S. going to do about the risk of pneumonic plague coming from Russia?

“We're looking at it very strongly,” President Trump said Monday on reports that a female scientist in Siberia might have died of exposure to the plague after a lab accident. “They call it pneumonia, and pneumonia, you know, years ago you could treat pneumonia easier,” he said. “The microbes and the germs have gotten stronger disproportionately, but we'll help them.” Russian media initially reported that the researcher broke a test tube containing plague bacteria in late September, came down with severe pneumonia and then died of her illness. The World Health Organization said she died of severe pneumonia overnight into Oct. 2. #russia #health #heathtok #siberia #trump
