In early July, four residents in the Tuva region, which borders Mongolia, were diagnosed with anthrax after eating the meat of an infected horse.
Over 150 people were vaccinated against the infectious disease since.
The regional branch of Rospotrebnadzor, Russia's federal public health watchdog, has been informed of the patients' escape, Tass reported. Nikolai Malyshev, the former chief infectious diseases specialist in the Moscow Health Ministry, told Russian news outlet Lenta that the four infected patients should be brought back to the hospital in Kyzyl where they were undergoing treatment, for further monitoring.
He didn't comment on the risk of the disease spreading, saying that he doesn't know when they began treatment, but described their escape as"irresponsible."
