        @mashable why couldn't you have named the country instead of calling it an African country?

        @TanakaMadeu a good q. i made that decision as not everyone knows what/where rwanda is (sadly).

        @moneyries @TanakaMadeu that is sad. Rwanda is one of the most well known countries there imo.. Hell there are even movies named after it..

        @mashable Rather generalizing term, "an African country". You wouldn't see "a European country" or "a North American country".

        @mylesmarcus made that call as not everyone knows where Rwanda is — wanted to generalize a bit so all readers had idea where ban is.

        @moneyries @mylesmarcus Plus it adds a comic effect to it. A jab at those generalizing that "Africa is one country that has ebola."

        @MweneGatete @moneyries @mylesmarcus No. Because it dispels stereotypes that Africa is a country and Africa has ebola.

        @MweneGatete Because it highlights that Rwanda, an African country, doesn't want ebola entering its borders @moneyries @mylesmarcus

        @ArchieHenry2 @moneyries @mylesmarcus point was him simply calling it some "African country" and anyhow who would want ebola crossing border

        @mashable They've got no cases, US has 8. This is just good health control, and not ironic in the slightest.
