The headline says "through" March 25th and the text says "by March 25th" The seconds seems more plausible

They were in a difficult situation, stop flying, leave millions stranded, or keep flying and try to get as many as possible home....a rock and a hard place comes to mind.....

When you look at radar 24 there are so many flights all over Europe. Surely they should all be grounded except for flights approved by the government’s? It’s very easy to see how this virus is being spread

I was amazed that after the outbreak in Wuhan 30 odd flights a day were taking off from there to all parts of the world for ‘at least’ three weeks! Crazy!
