In reply to Joshua Monroe Mayfield. Hey Joshua, unfortunately there is so much that is changing right now that it's hard to tell. I know many US carriers that are cancelling flights throughout all of March, so your options might be limited to other countries. It's really just trying to figure out what's possible.

Hello, I’m currently in the US. I plan to go back to Shanghai for my master’s program in March. I’m also thinking about traveling to Japan to visit my friend in Tokyo. Would I be more likely to book a successful flight to China from Japan rather than the US right now? Honestly, I prefer to fly directly from us to China if i can fly out that way.

In reply to mariah. My recommendation: YOU make YOUR own decision. Don't let the school do it for you. Are you not comfortable going back yet? Then don't do it. Wait until you see how things play out with the coronavirus. But don't feel pressure from your school.

hello! i’m on a holiday n japan, but i work as a teacher in shandong province, and they are calling the teachers back to work (although with no students) next week.
we would have to plan from home and be careful when going outside, but as it is for work i think that i have to go back, as they want the teaachers back in the country. my family back in my country is worried, though!
i would like to hear your thoughts about that! thank you!

Good work, josh.

Even though there is no immunization against the coronavirus, I Would suggest all persons over 60 to take the pneumoNia shot as an additional precautionary measure, regardless whether TRAVELING to china or not. Check with your doctor first, of course.
