The Kremlin rejected the cover-up of the death of the plague laboratory worker

Dmitry Peskov, Kremlin spokesman, in response to a report by the American channel "IBC News", which claimed that Washington had arranged a diplomatic interception for Moscow regarding the treatment of the death of an employee of the Epidemic Research Institute in Siberia and demanded more transparency, said: Moscow informed the World Health Organization about the procedure established last week in accordance with this death procedure.

Media in the West claim that the details of this person's death have not been published. According to Reuters, as a result, the Russian authorities quarantined dozens of people and sent the head of the Russian Health Authority to the Irkutsk region in Siberia.

Most of the published reports about this incident are false and people should refer to the information published by the Russian health watchdog "Rospoterbenadzor".
