☣️🦠 UPDATE on pneumonic plague outbreak at the BSL-3 lab in Siberia. 🦠☣️

Russian gov't in TOTAL information control mode.

Baikalsk municipal admin warned residents NOT to travel to the area where the lab accident occurred, then deleted the info ~2 hrs later. Local REN TV deleted 5 posts about the accident. Local journalists who reported on the accident yesterday appear not to have not written any updates since.

Pneumonic plague is 100% fatal if not treated with antibiotics within the first 24 hours of symptoms. The biggest question being suppressed: have there been any more deaths from plague?

The US State Dept lists Russia as having an illegal bioweapons program, one of 2 nations (N. Korea is other). Genetic modifications / bioweapons engineering more likely done at Obolensk and Vector (in a BSL-4 lab), but this is impossible to know for certain.

I love Finland. I love their obsession with personal space too. Never have I seen such a hilarious visualisation of how much the Finns love their personal space! It's a real life data visualisation! Source: https://t.co/K7u1OmWZtC

Gravity causes bodies on Earth to fall towards the ground; however, the alpine ibex seem it doesn't care at all

Its herbivorous diet is lacking in calcium salt, so it typically climbs dams' steep walls to reach deposits of mineral salts from the stones

Weather in Antarctica is generally classified with 3 levels

The most severe is 'condition 1': windspeed over 102 km/h, temperature < −73 °C, visibility less than 30 m.

In other words: hell

As a frozen lake melts, the pieces of ice are pushed together by the water underneath, creating a stunning display of ice shards on the water.

Thai police in Narathiwat thought that it was a good idea to demonstrate to children how crowd control police suppress protesters on children’s day.

What is the point for this?
