Now the United States of America has issued a crucial director regarding the prospect of travelling to Russia as they have advised against it.

The U.S. Embassy said it is aware of press reports from the Irkutsk region of suspected pneumonic plague resulting in the death of an individual and of associated quarantine measures.

The U.S. government has limited ability to help U.S. citizens in Russia, especially outside of Moscow. Subsequently, the State Department has issued Level 4 Travel Advisory (Do Not Travel) for Russia remains in place and states U.S. citizens currently in Russia should depart immediately.

U.S. citizens planning travel to Russia are again strongly advised not to travel to Russia due to risk of wrongful detention and security concerns.
