The death of a worker from pneumonia of an uncertain origin at a Russian laboratory that researches plague has raised questions about what caused the illness. Russian authorities say they've found no micro-organisms in the body of the 28 year-old that are linked to her work, and no cases of plague have been detected among anyone who came into contact with her. The WHO says the risk outside the region is low, but the US is seeking more information.
