I think your comment suggests shallow thinking with regard to this very unusual situation.
The Americans were able to get their people out of Japan and quarantine and treat them in the States. Why can’t the Brits do that?

Maybe they’re too old for the British government to bother with them...you know, like their NHS rules.
I of course will overlook your unwarrented suggestion of shallow thinking on my part regarding the situation, which as I’ve stated travelers can and do risk finding themselves in when traveling abroad...and when so it’s generally considered ‘unusual’ situations. All the more if they’re elderly folks.
(BTW The Brits did send a plane to get their people out.)
