The 58 evacuees from Iran, who arrived on board an Indian Air Force flight, are “asymptomatic” at present, said the government. “Asymptomatic” means they have, so far, presented no symptoms associated with Covid-19 virus.

All of them have been quarantined at the Hindon airbase located east of Delhi. Hundreds of families of IAF personnel live there. The base hosts heavy-lift planes and helicopters.

The evacuees have been put in a medical facility in a section of the base that is spread across 55 sq km.
