On Tuesday, 195 people who were quarantined at March Air Reserve Base in Riverside, Calif., are free to leave.
This week has been a welcome homecoming for 195 people evacuated from Wuhan, China, who had spent the past two weeks in quarantine in Riverside, Calif., being tested for the novel coronavirus under the order of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention .
Days earlier, Evans had told Yahoo Lifestyle, “My heart [is] in Wuhan. I felt grief to leave my friends who are stuck behind. The city is in complete lockdown.” Not everyone under quarantine has had the same experience, however, with many stuck at sea — like the more than 2,000 passengers aboard the Diamond Princess, 135 of which have tested positive for the coronavirus as of Monday. From where the vessel is docked, in Yokohama, Japan, passenger David Abel has been vlogging on Facebook, where he’s shared that internet connections, meal deliveries — and morale — have run thin.
David sympathizes with passengers in cabins without windows or balconies. “Can you imagine? It would be liked being locked in a wardrobe, wouldn’t it?” he told the Post. “No fresh air. No natural light. It really must be a living hell for them.” He also remarked to CNBC, “All of the luxury of having someone — a steward coming to the cabin, make the bed, put chocolate on the pillow, change the towels, face cloths, clean the bathroom — those days are gone. It just ain’t happening.
— Matthew Smith February 10, 2020 In contrast to fictional depictions of quarantines — a 2008 film called Quarantine, for example, depicted characters trapped inside a building to escape a virus that causes people to kill — real-life conditions can be routine.
