Dr. Kent Brantly contaracted Ebola in West Africa while helping infected people.

He is now fighting for his life because of this disease.

Therefore, yes, it is. If Americans cannot become immune to the disease, and it is life- threating, they shouldn't go over to a country where the disease is housed until a proper solution is found.

Is it irresponsible to send American aid to countries that are housing infected people?
