Mother of Russian Plague Researcher Denies Lab Accident, Claims Daughter Was ‘Let Die’

The mother of Darya Shipilova, a 28-year-old researcher at the Irkutsk Anti-Plague Research Institute, has vehemently refuted claims that her daughter’s death was caused by a broken test tube, asserting “I know the truth” and that “They simply let my daughter die.” Svetlana Shipilova, herself a medical professional, dismissed the narrative as impossible for anyone with even basic knowledge of laboratory safety, stating, “Not even all medical professionals understand it’s impossible to break a test tube like that. Even if you fling it at the wall. Only an amateur could say something like that.” This challenge to the official explanation comes amid global health concerns and secrecy surrounding the death, with Russian authorities attributing it to “pneumonia of unknown origin” and finding no evidence of pathogen exposure, while international bodies like the WHO and CDC are closely monitoring the situation due to the lack of a full picture and the potential for a serious biohazard.
