This may sound a bit crazy but I was thinking about it today. What if we Quarantine Africa? Just the countries around Egypt on downward? I mean every so often a really horrible disease comes from there like AIDS or Ebola. Also it is a haven for terrorism and they tend to kidnap people there a lot and half the damn continent is in civil war. So to prevent any diseases from coming out of there and wiping out millions of people how about we just get together and cut off the place from the rest of the world? Like put ships around the coast from every country with orders to force people to go back into Africa and put a bunch of soldiers around Egypt to prevent anyone from getting in.

Any problems will eventually work themselves out there and lets say in 20 years we might open it back up or send explores to see what is going on. Also we could use it as a prison sorta for child rapist and other incurable criminals. Sorta just air drop them like paratroopers into africa with a gun and some food and let them figure it out. It may turn out well.

Might as well just quarantine anywhere else in the world where the same thing is occurring, why single out Africa and do that? On top of that it's inhumane.

Because it happens the most in Africa. Then we also get a giant prison out of it.

The words "Rosie O'Donell" and "Vagina"  should never, ever, ever be in the same sentence, paragraph or page.

Ok, so you are suggesting instead of trying to solve a problem, we just close the borders and forget about it for 20yrs? "hope" it gets sorted out?

YOu realize that if we did that, there would be even WORSE diseases coming out of there after 20yrs of isolation, WE would be more susceptible from diseases that have had 20yrs to evolve without any treatment, not to mention that africa would fall into even worse chaos than it is now, and in 20yrs, you really think that we would even be able to get into one of the rogue countries?

FFS Mac, thats the worst idea i have heard all day.

I was actually born in New York but I've grown up in New Jersey.

So let me guess you are going to make the smart remark of "lets quarantine New Jersey"?
