The Shelekhov District Hospital has been placed under quarantine, and 197 people who may have come into contact with the deceased have been placed under medical supervision. The quarantine measures, which authorities have not formally confirmed are linked to plague, affect three municipal hospitals in Irkutsk, No. 1, No. 3 and No. 10, along with the Ivano-Matreninskaya Children's Hospital and a maternity hospital, Lyudi Baikala reported. The outlet said the hospitals were closed for three weeks and that patient visits are prohibited.![]()

**Gulf Hurricane Likely This Week: Here's Who Needs to Watch**![]()
![]()
A named storm, possibly a hurricane, is likely to form in the Gulf between Oct. 7 and 10. If it develops, it would be named Isaias.![]()
![]()
The National Hurricane Center puts the odds of development at 70 percent. Models increasingly show a Category 1 or 2 hurricane, possibly briefly stronger, meandering through the northern Gulf late this week.![]()
![]()
Anyone from Houston to Tampa should be paying attention, with the greatest concern right now from New Orleans to Pensacola.![]()
![]()
As of Monday morning, a broad cluster of thunderstorms was sitting over the Bay of Campeche, where water temperatures of 84 to 87 degrees provide plenty of fuel. A tropical depression could form around Wednesday, then slowly organize.![]()
![]()
Strong wind shear from a subtropical jet stream across the southern U.S., along with dry air, would likely weaken the system before landfall. It could still bring wind, storm surge, heavy rain and an increased tornado risk.![]()
![]()
The track is still uncertain. The European and Google DeepMind models pull the system northeast, but there is also a chance it gets pushed west toward Mexico.![]()
