A plane carrying about 210 U.S. citizens evacuated from Wuhan, China—the epicenter of the deadly coronavirus—was diverted Tuesday to California’s March Air Reserve Base "for the logistics that they have," an official said.
The plane was initially headed to Ontario International Airport in California.
