@brettm "Unknown etiology"? I've seen it reported everywhere that it was the plague, but they don't actually know?

@chjara@akko.tuxcrafting.xyz afaik the person who contracted it was exposed by a broken vial or similar at a biosafety level 3 lab. and afaik it was def pneumatic plague. maybe w.h.o. says 'unknown eitiology' to avoid feeding conspiracy theories about the lab being a bioweapons lab? or maybe they will wait to compare genetic samples?
