Not until a Virulent Strain cube has been treated in that city this turn. Once someone has treated one there, the pawns in the city can be moved out by Special Orders or the Dispatcher during that turn, or by Airlift. A Dispatcher who stands in the city can treat once to free every pawn he moves. A pawn moved into the city by the Dispatcher stays stuck until its owner treats a cube on their own turn.
