I, the Almighty, have laid my hands upon the nations, to scourge them for their wickedness. And plagues shall go forth, and they shall not be taken from the earth until I have completed my work, which shall be cut short in righteousness.
Doctrine & Covenants 84:96-97
Whatever plagues we see in the world are sent for the purpose of accomplishing the work of God. While we should seek to relieve suffering we should not take plagues as a sign of God abandoning any segment of mankind.
