For Americans seeking to leave Wuhan, Thursday’s announcement by the State Department that it would arrange for more flights came as welcome news. Now they’d like more details and answers to their questions.
For Americans seeking to leave Wuhan and unable to board Wednesday’s flight to the U.S., Thursday’s announcement by the State Department that it would arrange for more flights came as welcome news.A sense of uncertainty has been hovering over the American expat community living in the central Chinese city at the heart of a coronavirus outbreak that has infected nearly 9,700 and killed 213 in China alone. The State Department also increased its travel warning to Level 4– Do Not Travel.
A statement from a State Department spokesperson addressed only some of those issues, saying it was working on the flight arrangements for U.S. citizens, spots on the planes would have to be paid for and more information would be coming. Like other Americans in Wuhan, Barkin said information from official sources has been hard to come by, so he scours the Internet seeking clues about their options.
Not all Americans in Wuhan are facing such complex situations, but more are starting to feel the impact of a lockdown that has been in place for more than a week.
