Uh....so maybe they should stop that?
*****************************
In a word, YES. Unfortunately for the purpose of stopping Ebola, this goes counter to their culture and they don’t understand the medical aspects of protecting themselves from Ebola. It’s very sad ... not only from the standpoint of people dying, but those still living not being able to grieve the death(s) of loved ones and give them a proper burial, all of which matters a lot to these people.
The Nigerian president said something like ‘if someone is dead, he is dead, leave him there!’ to address this practice.
Yes, that aspect would be very difficult. Not as difficult as dying of Ebola, but still difficult.
Nobody has a problem with people greiving, or burying the dead, but for God’s sake He gave people a brain, and they need to use it.
Pay respects, but if you kiss Unle NooNoo goodbye and everybody who did that winds up with Ebola and is dying, for God sake don’t be stupid and kiss one of them when THEY die.
It ain’t rocket science...
