A plane carrying about 201 U.S. citizens evacuated from Wuhan, China – the epicenter of the deadly coronavirus – landed in the U.S. on Tuesday night to refuel in Alaska before it took off for California. The plane is en route to California’s March Air Reserve Base “for the logistics that they have,” an official said.
The Boeing 747 with red and gold stripes and no passenger windows was initially headed to Ontario International Airport in California. It landed in Alaska at Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport on Tuesday night, was refueled and took off for California. Every passenger passed the screenings.
“The whole plane erupted in cheers when the crew said, ‘Welcome home to the United States,’" Alaska’s Chief Medical Officer Dr. Anne Zink said.

Glad to see that someone made a good decision in not landing at a public airport in CA. Here’s hoping no one on that plane has the virus.

I think that’s smart. A two week hold would make sure nothing spreads. Just imagine what could happen on the streets of San Francisco and LA.
So that's a start.
Who will be the first Congress Critter to equate this with White Privilege somehow? Fran seen, Tail I B, or OO mar?
from the article above:
“The plane is en route to California’s March Air Reserve Base” (in Riverside county)
Thanks
It’s a start. 90% of the government, the mayor and the Governor and then we’ve got a good start.
” United Kingdom, which will fly back up to 300 citizens trapped in Wuhan and Hubei, reports the BBC, and will place them into quarantine for two weeks before being allowed to rejoin the general population.”
Thanks for the link
Stick them in separate rooms, give them room service, NetFlix, the Torah (or Bible), and WiFi and let them hang out for 14 days.
What screenings? Temp and sniffle tests are mostly a waste of time when symptoms may not show up for 14+ days.
Too late to suspend them now the virus is inside the wire in force.
This is getting spooky.
