Health Alert: Americans evacuated from Wuhan, China, are being isolated voluntarily but could be quarantined if necessary

The 210 people flown to March Air Reserve Base in Southern California Wednesday are there voluntarily for 72 hours of testing and monitoring, but government officials reserve the right to quarantine anyone who they believe would pose a risk to others by leaving, federal health officials said Wednesday. The evacuees include a 1-month-old infant and other children. One person who had a fever was not allowed to board in China, said Nancy Knight, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's division of Global Health Protection.
