Shafaqna English- The World Health Organisation (WHO) said that it has found no evidence of ongoing transmission linked to the death of a laboratory worker in Russia.

Russia’s state health regulator told the WHO that tests on the worker and people who had been in contact with her were negative for the dangerous pathogens they tested for, the United Nations health agency said in a statement on Saturday.

Her contacts still showed no symptoms, and no further linked cases of severe pneumonia had been found, the WHO added.
