In the meantime, South Korea's plan to fly its nationals out of Wuhan have been put on hold.
Two chartered planes were initially arranged to evacuate more than 700 South Koreans from the city on Thursday and Friday,... with the first flight to leave this morning.
But the Chinese government made some changes to flying permits so the would-be passengers have been told to wait until further notice.
The South Korean government will likely use one chartered plane instead of two and the foreign ministry is currently in close coordination with the Chinese government to rearrange the flight schedules.
It hopes to dispatch the plane this evening.
The government is also considering providing 5 million U.S. dollars in in humanitarian assistance to China,... on top of the medical equipment it's decided to give.
