Good. Put up T-Walls up, all around LA County, control access and test everyone coming out like they did in I Am Legend, restrict movement out so the rich-celebrities-athletes with money can’t flee the place and let them suffer. Wait till they’re all gone, go in there with some front end loaders, clean the place up and start over. California and, more importantly, the country will be better for it.

Is that cruel? Sorry, not sorry.

As a matter of fact, earlier today I saw two LAPD bust ups of homeless camps in Studio City and Hollywood. The sidewalks under freeway bridges in Hollywood are covered in human and dog feces. Tents and campfires on the sidewalks

LA is what the President was referring to when he said shithole

It is called the “Process of natural Selection”. Got a problem? A Dem politician will be the source of the solution.

The State of California doesn’t know that it doesn’t know...that it is sick.

Treatment for Plague is streptomycin. I and 2 others contracted plague in 1970. 24 days in an Army hospital, Vung Tau, Vietnam.

I used to watch this channel on YouTube where the guy would rig up a hidden camera on himself and walk through the streets of LA where the homeless were congregating. This was before the massive encampments of today were set up. It was horrible even then.

Pinsky, who has worked as a physician at psychiatric hospitals, believes the homelessness issue has been caused by an inability to properly treat the chronically mentally ill and drug addicts.

UNWILLINGNESS, not inability. The homeless are special people, you know, and better than us who have jobs and homes and stuff.

The problem I see...if you were reasonably healthy, and then started to notice serious diarrhea, some fever, and some cramps...you might go to a doctor, and with enough tests...determine this in a few days.

However, if you were a serious dope-user, on heroin...you could skip three warning stages, and go into some bleeding (lacking clot ability), severe weakness, and then skin turning black. By that point, streptomycin would have limits.

Add to it....just in one single camp area of 200 tents, you might ID ten guys in a week with the plague, and bring in the resources to test all 350 people....find half of them with the beginning elements, and forty with serious effects going on. You’d need to isolate the 200-odd people real quick. Then you’d need to dismantle this camp and do a massive clean-up and destroy the rat population ASAP. Where exactly will you put the new camp, and won’t this just help to restart the plague outbreak somewhere else?

As long as the rats carry the pathogen AND the insect vector is available.
