The sin of all of this is the impact it has on protecting our citizens from a further outbreak of embola. Of course we will have more cases with citizens/visitors going and coming from Africa. It is naive to believe anything other than that! When this happens the only answer is corruption. This may sound strong but with people dying because traffic with Africa will not be shut off it becomes the answer. Think of UK and France, etc. who have stopped flights in and out of Africa. WHY? |
Why? Because UK and France etc. probably are more concerned about stopping the worst epidemic afoot in modern times than they are about
political correctness essential to campaigners for an election in 3 weeks!!
And maybe they are listening to the UN being useful and responsible at a time like this:
