For
Readers following the Irkutsk incident
Worth noticing
The page lists 73 stories and lays out reported isolation figures ranging from over 60 to nearly 200, with sources identified.

Field notes

The page separates figures, chronology, and unresolved questions rather than presenting a single uncontested account. For example, it attributes different isolation estimates to different outlets and notes that confirmation of Yersinia pestis remains unresolved in the brief. Its listed sources include both state and independent media; the supplied homepage extract does not independently verify their reporting.
