美国总统唐纳德·特朗普周二表示，他将“很快”与俄罗斯总统弗拉基米尔·普京通话，与此同时，他的政府正密切关注西伯利亚疑似腺鼠疫死亡病例的报道——该报道已促使美国发布健康警报，并让俄罗斯周边多个国家加强了卫生防范措施。
特朗普在周二回答记者提问时透露了这场计划中的通话。
当被问及是否已就此事与普京通话时，特朗普表示他已经安排了通话。
“我已经安排了通话，没错，”特朗普说道。

当被问及通话何时举行时，总统回应道：“很快。”
当被问及美国情报机构对相关报道有何看法时，特朗普表示政府正处于“非常深入的讨论中”。
总统发表上述言论之际，美国驻莫斯科大使馆周二发布了健康警报，称其注意到俄罗斯伊尔库茨克地区有媒体报道“疑似腺鼠疫导致一人死亡”，并伴随相关隔离措施和医院关闭。
“我们将继续密切关注局势，”大使馆说道。

美国国务院发言人告诉福克斯新闻数字频道，国务院、疾病控制与预防中心以及其他跨部门合作伙伴正“密切监控俄罗斯伊尔库茨克州疑似腺鼠疫致死病例”。
“特朗普政府的首要任务是保障美国民众的安全与保障，”这位发言人说道。
发言人提醒称“许多细节尚未得到证实”，并呼吁莫斯科方面提供更多信息。
“我们鼓励俄罗斯当局迅速、公开地分享准确信息，”这位发言人说道。
警报提醒在该地区的美国人遵循当地卫生指引，避开受影响的医疗机构，若出现发烧或呼吸道症状请及时就医。那些曾前往疫情暴发地区的人员被建议监测自己14天的健康状况。
美国国务院针对俄罗斯的四级“请勿前往”旅行 advisory 保持不变。大使馆重申，目前身处俄罗斯的美国人应尽快离开，并警告美国政府协助当地公民的能力有限，尤其是在莫斯科以外地区。

俄罗斯周边多个国家也正针对相关报道实施新的卫生防范措施。
哈萨克斯坦、吉尔吉斯斯坦、塔吉克斯坦和乌兹别克斯坦政府正采取所谓“强化卫生防疫措施”，以应对西伯利亚腺鼠疫的报道。
俄罗斯伊尔库茨克西伯利亚与远东抗鼠疫研究所一名28岁员工上周死亡，俄罗斯当局称其死因是不明原因肺炎。俄罗斯方面并未表示该女子死于鼠疫，并表示检测未发现其体内存在与工作相关的微生物。

俄罗斯官员告诉世界卫生组织，与她有接触的人员的危险传染病病原体检测结果均为阴性。世界卫生组织评估称普通人群面临的风险较低。
美国疾病控制与预防中心（CDC）也表示，正密切关注相关报道，并随着更多信息的公布与美国政府各部门协同工作。该机构表示，目前没有迹象表明美国面临更广泛的威胁。
腺鼠疫是由鼠疫耶尔森菌引起的严重细菌性感染。通过密切接触时的呼吸道飞沫在人与人之间传播，若不及时治疗可快速恶化。若能早期发现并治疗，抗生素可成功治愈该疾病。
目前，美国官员仍在持续收集有关伊尔库茨克事件的更多信息，以及该事件是否构成更广泛威胁。
总统暗示他的政府最快可能在周三发布更多相关消息。
“我们大概明天就能汇报此事了，”特朗普说道。

President Donald Trump said Tuesday he will speak with Russian President Vladimir Putin “very soon” as his administration closely tracks reports of a suspected pneumonic plague death in Siberia that have prompted a U.S. health alert and heightened health precautions across several countries bordering Russia.
Trump revealed the planned call while taking questions from reporters Tuesday.
Asked whether he had spoken with Putin about the situation, Trump said he already had a call scheduled.
“I have a call scheduled, yup,” Trump said.

Asked when the call would take place, the president responded, “Very soon.”
Trump said the administration was in “very deep discussions” when asked what U.S. intelligence agencies were saying about the reports.
The president’s comments came as the U.S. Embassy in Moscow issued a health alert Tuesday saying it was aware of press reports from Russia’s Irkutsk region of “suspected pneumonic plague resulting in the death of an individual,” along with associated quarantine measures and hospital closures.
“We continue to track the situation closely,” the embassy said.

A State Department spokesman told Fox News Digital that the department, along with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and other interagency partners, is “closely monitoring the fatal case of suspected pneumonic plague” in Russia’s Irkutsk Oblast.
“The Trump Administration has no higher priority than the safety and security of Americans,” the spokesman said.
The spokesman cautioned that “many details remain unconfirmed” and called on Moscow to provide greater clarity.
“We encourage Russian authorities to share accurate information quickly and openly,” the spokesman said.
The alert advised Americans in the area to follow local health guidance, avoid affected medical facilities and seek prompt medical care if they develop fever or respiratory symptoms. Those who have traveled to an area experiencing an outbreak were advised to monitor their health for 14 days.
The State Department’s existing Level 4 “Do Not Travel” advisory for Russia remains unchanged. The embassy reiterated that Americans currently in Russia should depart and warned that the U.S. government’s ability to assist citizens there is limited, particularly outside Moscow.

Several countries bordering Russia are also implementing new health precautions in response to the reports.
Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan are moving to implement what their governments have described as “enhanced health and sanitary measures” in response to reports of pneumonic plague in Siberia.
A 28-year-old employee of the Irkutsk Anti-Plague Institute of Siberia and the Far East died last week from what Russian authorities described as pneumonia of undetermined origin. Russia has not said the woman died of plague and said testing found no microorganisms in her body linked to her work.
Darya Shipilova, 28, an employee of the Irkutsk Anti-Plague Research Institute of Siberia and the Far East, died after developing pneumonia of an unknown cause, prompting quarantines and heightened health precautions in the region. Russian authorities say testing has found no evidence her illness was linked to pathogens she worked with.(East2West)
Russian officials told the WHO that her contacts tested negative for dangerous infectious pathogens. The WHO has assessed the risk to the general population as low.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has also said it is closely monitoring the reports and working across the U.S. government as additional information becomes available. The agency said there is currently no indication of a broader threat to the United States.
Pneumonic plague is a serious bacterial infection caused by Yersinia pestis. It can spread between people through respiratory droplets during close contact and can progress rapidly if untreated. The disease can be successfully treated with antibiotics, particularly when identified and treated early.
For now, U.S. officials are continuing to seek additional information about what occurred in Irkutsk and whether the incident poses any wider threat.
The president suggested his administration could have more to say as soon as Wednesday.
“We’ll be able to report about it probably tomorrow,” Trump said.
