Is it normal to think the world should allow africa to depopulate itself

Ah to be one of the lucky ones born in a wealthy, developed country with a strong, stable society and a functioning government, huh?

It's so easy to condemn millions of people from your safe and comfortable position, isn't it?

I can understand why the op feels this way considering so many people in Africa refuse to help themselves by adopting basic hygeine...how many times have they refused to listen to basic meical advice like don't hand wash the bodies of dead relatives, and wear gloves, and they still do their tribal rituals and ignore medical advice? Its hard to want to help people when they are thwarting all efforts. I just heard on the news that people keep breaking into hospitals and often harming the staff to take patients out back to their homes where they will undoubtedly cause more disease to spread to innocent children. Until these people cooperate they really cant be helped.
Im not saying everyone is doing this of course there are people who want to be helped and are doing their best to keep well and stop the spread of disease but unfortunately there are enough ignorant people who ignore any sound modern medical advice and continue burning herbs and washing out dead relatives body cavities by hand. How can you hope to help someone who wont be helped?

To the peril of all humanity, Africans are too dumb collectively to manage this epidemic. The first world needs to send untested vaccines to slow the epidemic. Infections in Europe, Asia, or the Americas by next summer are a likely possibility.

The way they're going about this is the best possible solution for the rest of us. A mass illness is like a dirty, deep cut. If you take action when when the wound appears, the risl of infection is very small. The longer you wait, the more the infection will spread. You may even think your limb can be removed and that will solve the problem. But the infection is already in the bloodstream and continues doing damage. You could wreak havoc on your system and even die just because you didn't want to clean a wound. So what you're saying is we should be so lazy that we won't even clean up a small mess to save our own skin. You would rather leave that up to chance or cut it off before it bothers you.
It's a lot easier to manage a small country's illness than it is to patrol and seize an entire continent. It's also a lot better for everyone, including those who aren't affected yet. Like you. Believe me, if we let it spread through a continent, itwould come for us like a thief in the night.

Fuck Africa, take the beautiful innocent animals that suffer at the hands of the disgusting poachers first though.

Sometimes it takes a big weapon to fix a small problem. Let's use our nukes.

Maybe you should remember that not every african has the virus.

Is that you, Hitler? I thought you were dead.

I don't understand why you care. It's not like ebola greatly effects the rest of the world. Is it really your business or concern that some people want to help.

It would be next to impossible to quarantine all of Africa.

I think it's unlikely that anyone in "my" country would attack and loot an Ebola quarantine center, allowing 20+ infected people loose to infect others in the largest city in the country. Do you think people would do that in "your" country? Wouldn't you and any intelligent person want to isolate yourselves from their loved ones and others, so the disease doesn't spread? This incident could very well cause the deaths of hundreds, possibly thousands and you are all acting like it's perfectly understandable and acceptable human behavior.

There's a risk that it could pass to other countries/continents too. Maybe, we should quarantine yours and let the disease run its course? It's only fair after all.

I think the whole world should just overpopulate until it explodes!
