WHO Blasts Canada for Banning Visa to West Africans

[jchima]

Canada has suspended visa applications for residents and nationals of countries with "widespread transmission" of the Ebola virus, becoming the second nation after Australia to introduce such a measure.

The countries most severely hit by the worst Ebola outbreak ever are Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea. Canada has not yet had a case of the disease.
A similar move by Australia was slammed on Wednesday by Dr Margaret Chan, the World Health Organisation's director general, who said closing borders won't stop spread of the Ebola virus.

Good for Canada!

Australia did the same!

Good move Ebama should have done the same. The "heroes" that want to help Ebolaland should stay away from the rest of us.
