Waterborne Disease Outbreak

The Quest for Divinity

On 12 May 2014, Mayte Diana Grey died from waterborne diseases on the Island. Chief Mark Grey fell into a spiral grieve after the death of Mayte Grey. To prevent anymore waterborne diseases death the Island was closed down. Immigrants were not allowed to immigrant to the Island, and any immigrants without a visa, property, money, or a job were deported for santiation reasons. Also to prevent any potential foreign disease mixing with the waterborne diseases outbreak. Arrording the Sentinel Medical Department and Tribal Council Documentation.org Immigration on the Island was shut down for threes year to contain and eradicate the waterborne diseases and any other potential disease. Immigrants and Sentinelese were separated on the Island for quarantine, medical, and sanitation reasons. The people were almost evicted from their homes and work for quarantine and eradication of waterborne and other potential disease. A travel ban was passed by the tribal council to prevent the spreading of disease to other countries. (Pg 12 Chief Mark Grey) Chief Mark Grey became drastically more progressive in leadership and caused the fall of the North Sentinelese Island. "Since the containment of the Island and the travel ban all government and medical issues had been placed on hold. Chief Mark Grey radically pushed for disease purification and ignoring other Sentinel political and social matters." (Todd Holts) reported by SNN. Todd Holts and other journalist documented the people's thoughts about the Waterborne Disease outbreak. Aadhira Patel a bank teller said "I don't like being placed in a doctor's office waiting for a doctor to tell me that I'm not sick, because I know I'm not sick I don't need a doctor telling me I'm sick." Chudamani Reddy who has been in a long family generation of farmers said "I've been in this doctor office for three weeks and I can not leave to go attend my crops, and if I don't attend the crops. No one eats!" Progress on the Island grinded to a halt as the disease purification continued. Trends like this continued as Chief Mark Grey's power increase and public interest decrease, especial in the Farmers Only.
