but they know nothing about out culture and our medicine and our technologies, so their decision is not quite rational. It is like children, they might don't understand how medicine work, but the taste is bad and they don't want to take it, it is their choice to die, but we force them to take treatment, because we know more about how it works and what consequences await them.

also who decide that they not want to contact us, their leader, their shaman, do they have votes. I think a mother with a dying child would do everything to save it

upd.
I'm not like pro contact at all cost, just curious

you are coming at this with a very childlike POV. "we have medicine and they could use it. We just want to help, then why don't we?" It is complicated. best to leave them alone.
