Darya Shipilova is said to have been exposed to the pathogen while working at the Irkutsk Anti-Plague Research Institute in Siberia
Hundreds of people have been placed into quarantine in Siberia after a laboratory worker died of suspected plague, according to reports.
Darya Shipilova, an employee at the Anti-Plague Research Institute in Shelekhov, was exposed to the bacteria after she accidentally broke a test tube containing the pathogen while she was collecting samples, the Kyiv Independent reported.
She was hospitalised on 29 September with severe pneumonia of "unknown origin” and placed on a ventilator, but died shortly after.
Independent Russian outlet Lyudi Baikal reported that several hospitals in the city of Irkutsk had closed for a three-week quarantine.
Does it really matter what the label is on the name of the institute that wipes out humanity? If the place has deadly viruses with the only protection stopping it from killing people that work there is a thin glass test tube, then it doesn’t really matter what the intent was, the place was always designed to wipe out humanity.
It doesn’t, but I’m willing to bet a dollar that the name on the institute that wipes out humanity will be a reference to the Lord of the Rings, and it will be one of the evil things.
