I think there are two points here, both valid. 1) Rich people will be harmed in the long term as the Zika virus will end up hurting them by causing the society to overall be injured and less efficient in the long run, and while fewer rich people will be effected some will be. 2) Rich people are too shortsighted and self-absorbed to care, and won't care until the disease starts directly effecting them. By then it will be too late.
