Hospital Breakout: Deadly Bacteria Patients Escape in Siberia

Patients infected with anthrax in Siberia have escaped from a hospital, raising concerns about a potential outbreak.

Russian Anthrax Patients Flee Siberian Hospital

Four patients infected with anthrax in Russia's southern Siberia have escaped from the hospital where they were being treated. The patients had been diagnosed with anthrax after consuming the meat of an infected horse. While the escaped patients are reportedly in satisfactory condition, they can only be discharged after all manifestations of the disease on the skin have healed. Anthrax can cause severe illness in both humans and animals, and person-to-person transmission is possible in rare cases. The regional health authorities have been informed of the escape, and experts have called for the patients to be brought back to the hospital for further monitoring.
