State Department evacuates a number of Americans from the U.S. consulate in Guangzhou, China after they experienced unexplained health issues; Garrett Tenney reports from Washington. A group of U.S. diplomats stationed in China have been brought back to the states after being inflicted by a mystery illness that reportedly resembles
