Explanation / Answer
don`t think that by closing borders, would control the epidemic as closing borders would create many other problems ,paradoxically make things much worse in the sense that" you can’t get supplies in, you can’t get help in, you can’t get the kinds of things in there that we need to contain the epidemic.”
Despite this, health and development experts are unanimous that a ban on outward air travel would be disastrous. Privately, UN officials warn that such a move could lead to a panicked rush of people across land borders, where unlike air passengers their movements cannot be traced. It could also cause further economic damage to the countries, threatening the civil order essential to fighting the disease.
So if neither exit nor entry screening works, why not simply stop anyone leaving the countries while we get the epidemic under control?
The first reason is that travel bans are unlikely to be very effective. Steep reductions in flights after the 9/11 bombings only delayed the subsequent flu season, and closing borders to the HIV-positive in the 1980s did not slow the HIV pandemic.
In both cases, that was because people carrying the infection still managed to get through, and that is likely now.
Moreover, a travel ban would further reduce commercial flights to the region. This could discourage badly needed foreign healthcare workers from volunteering, as with no military airlift planned, they need commercial flights to get home.
This would be catastrophic, preventing any further organised effort to fight the infection. Moreover, a collapse in food distribution or public safety could send a flood of refugees across land borders, for eg carrying Ebola to nearby, impoverished countries.
