I think about this too.. that if I was in their shoes I would get out of there ASAP. But this is still a very impoverished part of the world. Income per capita is ~$2k / yr. So, most simply don't have the means to leave. I think most are counting on being able to just stay out of the way and waiting for this to "blow over".
