A flight leaving Wuhan, China which is the epicenter of this coronavirus outbreak just left for Australia.

People who were recently flown out of Wuhan, China and into France are reportedly showing symptoms of being infected with the coronavirus.

There are also reportedly flights still going into Wuhan despite the Chinese government imposing a massive quarantine.

Business Insider:

A Chinese airline is offering travelers a rare deal: a flight from Hong Kong to New York for $201.

But there’s a catch: You have to stop off in the Chinese city of Wuhan, the center of the global coronavirus outbreak.

Business Insider on Friday found a May 20 flight from the budget airline China Southern for just $201 on the travel-comparison site Kayak. The offer was first reported by Bloomberg, which found an even cheaper flight, for $193.

This is all so stupid it is beyond comprehension. Especially considering nobody in any government seems willing to tell us if this coronavirus impacts Asians more so than non-Asians. If this information was confirmed, than these evacuations while being highly irresponsisble might at least be somewhat understandable.

But seriously, how hard would it be just to ban all travel to and from China until this is sorted out? This would be the easiest and simplest thing to do. Flying people in and out of China only risks spreading the virus to more and more people.
