Fifty-nine of 63 Myanmar students stranded in locked-down Wuhan, China, the epicenter of the coronavirus outbreak, were evacuated to Mandalay on a charter flight on Sunday morning.

Two students with fever, one who had problems with travel documents, and one was traveling outside of the city at the time of the flight were not on board, according to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. It was not immediately clear how the Myanmar government will handle those left behind.
