Editorial repositioning and transparency
The site now presents itself as a platform for information, science and monitoring about plague, with the Irkutsk case as a section rather than the central topic. Added the Editorial team page, a "How this content was produced" block (who/how/why) in each guide, and language adjustments distinguishing suspicion from confirmation.
- correction
Timeline correction
Removed a future-dated item (5 October) that could suggest an event had already happened. The entry now records the current monitoring status, without a future date.
