An employee of the anti-plague institute in Irkutsk, Russia, has died after a test tube broke in the laboratory, regional media report.

The case has raised concerns about a possible infection, although Russian authorities say they have found no evidence that her illness was caused by any of the pathogens she worked with.

Unconfirmed media reports have raised suspicions that the employee may have died from pneumonic plague, a severe form of the disease that, unlike other forms of plague, can be transmitted from person to person through the respiratory tract.

According to Russian media, around 200 people who had contact with the employee have been placed under strict medical observation. Several hospitals in the region have also reportedly been temporarily closed and placed in quarantine.

Experts say the risk of the disease spreading remains low if the laboratory is properly disinfected and exposed people are isolated in a timely manner. Alice Hughes, a professor of conservation science at the University of Melbourne, said that, in these circumstances, it is highly unlikely that the infection will spread further.

International authorities are also monitoring the situation. The European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) said it is in contact with the World Health Organization and is closely following developments.

The ECDC stressed that the suspicion of plague has not yet been confirmed and that, based on current information, no secondary cases or sustained human-to-human transmission have been reported.

The plague has not been reported in Europe for more than 50 years, while human cases continue to appear in some parts of the world, notably in the Democratic Republic of Congo and Madagascar. Health authorities are continuing to monitor to determine the exact cause of death and to assess any potential risk of the infection spreading.
