REUTERS/Anastasia Barashkova/Pool)        Anastasia Barashkova/Pool/Reuters     A top American biologist believes that Russia's mysterious pneumonic plague outbreak could actually be something much more sinister. Kevin Esvelt, a biologist and professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, theorized in a (https://x.com/kesvelt/status/2107210065333637566?s=20) thread on X on Monday that the reports of an anti-plague institute employee dying from pneumonic plague don't add up. "Russia's five-hospital quarantine, FSB involvement, and reported hazmat use in response to the death of a single researcher at a weapons-lineage Irkutsk lab are inconsistent with a lab-acquired plague infection, which would have been treated with prophylactic antibiotics," Esvelt, 44, wrote. Advertisement  Advertisement    Advertisement  Advertisement    "Russian authorities have surely sequenced the Irkutsk pathogen, but refuse to identify it," he continued. "Physical lockdown indicates it cannot be controlled with prophylactic antibiotics, implying engineered pan-resistance or that it isn't plague at all."

But the response clearly indicates that Russia believes an epidemic is possible - and that the responsible agent is likely a pandemic weapon or otherwise embarrassing for the government," he added. "Vaccines will be ineffective against competently designed pandemic weapons. Russia may not be competent yet, but future AI will democratize competence. We should stockpile pandemic-proof PPE and install germicidal far-UV and glycol misters in public spaces."

Public health officials have insisted that the epidemiological situation is under control, and Kremlin-linked agencies recalled their past mentions of pneumonic plague.
