Two flights bound for the United States were reportedly scheduled to leave Wuhan on Tuesday.
Wei hired a driver to take her to the Wuhan Tianhe International Airport on Tuesday but had feared that even with the help of the State Department something could go wrong. American officials had sent out a mass email to all those being evacuated that required vehicle license plates and driver IDs to be put on file in case of an emergency.
“I’m trying not to think too much about the trip ahead so that I can have confidence,” she said. “I’m not too good about dealing with unknowns.”Wei arrived at the airport with little trouble only to wait for more than 8 hours to board a flight. As of Tuesday morning, neither she nor her husband Kenneth Burnett, 45, knew where she was flying to in the United States.
About 200 people remain quarantined at March Air Reserve Base in Riverside County after being flown in from Wuhan last week. Other reported destinations for evacuation flights out of the city have included the 168th Regiment Regional Training Institute in Colorado, Lackland Air Force Base in Texas, Travis Air Force Base in Solano County and Marine Corps Air Station Miramar in San Diego.
“It’s probably impossible, but I have to ask, can I quarantine with them,” Burnett said from their Serra Mesa home in San Diego.
