These people have lived in isolation for centuries - they have no immunity to any diseases this guy or anyone else from the outside world might have. Even if he were carrying around the latest cold strain he could wipe them out. He truly is an idiot. Hopefully the relevant authorities throw the book at him.

I wonder if they found the Diet Coke? If they did I bet they shook the can.

He’s certainly an idiot, but unless they were willing to hand over one of their daughters to him, or have him be a house-guest for a while...they’d be fine.
