Haiti - Ebola : Haitians called upon to volunteer to fight Ebola

Updated October 4, 2014 9:52 AM

Did you know? The United Nations' new Mission for Ebola Emergency Response (UNMEER) is recruitting Haitians in Haiti for short missions in Africa infected with Ebola areas... We have been informed that Haitians are applying by the hundreds for this volunteer mission, not even focusing on the risk but the rewards being offered, to go to Ebola infected areas to help fight Ebola...

Bon... Kijan Haitien pral ede laa? nan bwote moun mouri? Gade koze mesye!!! (How exactly will these Haitians help, in handling dead ebola victims)

This is becoming a really HOT TOPIC on the Haitian social media networks...

Junior J. posts on Facebook: "Mezanmi sa se jwe ak yon grenad tou dekroupiye." (That's like playing with a live grenade!)

J. Mesamours posts on Facebook: Des Haitiens en Mission anti-Ebola en Terre Africaine. On ne peut les empêcher de partir chercher du travail. Pourra-t-on les empêcher de nous RAMENER EBOLA? Devra-t-on les abandonner s'ils deviennent contaminés?

TRANSLATION: Haitians in anti-Ebola missions in African territory. One can not prevent them from going to look for work. Can we prevent them from BRINGING BACK Ebola? Will we HAVE TO abandon them if they become contaminated?

Also read: Haiti bans ALL its citizens from UN mission against Ebola

Do you think this is a good idea? What will be done to make sure that these volunteers do not return to Haiti INFECTED and spread the virus in a country unable to defend itself medically?

What do you think about that?

I think this is a very stupid idea. The United Nation's should send their family members, friends, or go themselves.

I am so pissed

We have enough problem to deal with, they should not be allowed to leave; if they must, then they'll have to be given a certain amount of time (years) after the disease have been eradicated before being allowed back into the country.
