The woman, who worked at the Irkutsk Research Institute for Combating Plague, died after suffering from pneumonia of unknown cause, prompting health authorities to investigate whether the case could be linked to pneumonic plague. Trump said US intelligence was in 'deep consideration' of the matter and indicated that Washington could provide more information soon.
