Sierra Leone has slammed Australia’s decision not to grant visas to people from Ebola-hit countries.
United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki Moon says Ebola can only be beaten at its source and stygmatising people coming from infected countries does not help.
Australia’s over-the-top reaction to the Ebola outbreak is further indication of the damaging economic effects of the deadly haemorrhagic disease.
It’s devastating the economies in Liberia, Guinea and Sierra Leone where businesses close and lands go untilled.
The World Health Organisation’s adamant that fighting Ebola is about containing it at source.
Sierra Leone condemns as discriminatory the Australian decision to close its doors to people from Ebola-infected countries.
But whatever pressure can be applied to Canberra to reconsider that decision.
Nothing can be done to force tourists to visit the countries they’re now avoiding for fear of the epidemic.
