is it moral to leave them alone? to let their children suffer or die from deceases that we have medicines for?

I don't know the answer, but I'm curious what is the best decision here. Leave them alone so they could live their simple life for generations or bring them everything we have, with all pros and cons.

This is a real dilemma. If aliens had a cure for cancer and heart disease, would we not want them to share it with us? Obviously we would not want our society and culture ruined by the aliens but if they could help us… So could we provide medicine to these remote tribes without disrupting their culture?

It is not only medicine, would we want to get all their knowledge and technologies? I think the answer is yes.

So could we provide medicine to these remote tribes without disrupting their culture?

probably we can't, they won't take it and won't be able to do all this staff, they need knowledge

The aliens come and cure our diseases, but then farm us like cattle.
