Only guessing, but
- Foreign governments have to be seen to be doing something
- Foreign governments and people do not trust the Chinese state to provide the best care for its own citizens, let alone foreigners; and even when the 2 new 1,000 bed hospitals are fully operational, they may well be overwhelmed
I hope & assume the people being evacuated would be handled by fully suited and filtered medical staff, and the planes used are disinfected afterwards; full biohazard protocols. I doubt they would be evacuated on any assumption that this would prevent them getting infected.
