A Horrible Contagious Illness is Spreading Through Portland, Oregon’s Homeless Population (Shigella)

Portland, Oregon has a serious homeless problem and now it’s about to get worse. Much worse.

The disease of Shigella is spreading in the city, mostly through the homeless population, and to make matters worse, it spreads in a disgusting way, through fecal matter.

Aside from the ethical matter of allowing people to live on the street, one of the biggest issues is the threat to public health. This is why you don’t want a large population of people living in tents and using streets as a bathroom.

FOX News reports:

Portland health officials report waste-borne illness rampant among city’s homeless

Portland, Oregon, is grappling with a cluster of a highly infectious illness that spreads through fecal matter and puts the city’s large homeless population at high risk, according to health officials.

“While we are currently seeing an increase in Shigella cases in the Portland metro area, the risk to the broader public remains low at this time and there are no measures for most folks to take at this time. The best thing we can all do to prevent both respiratory viral illness and diarrheal illness is to keep practicing good hand hygiene,” Multnomah County Deputy Health Officer Teresa Everson said in a comment to Fox News Digital.

Portland and surrounding areas closed out 2023 with 227 documented Shigella cases, health officials in Multnomah County told Fox News Digital on Thursday, 45 of which occurred in December alone. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) describes Shigella as bacteria found in fecal matter that can infect someone if ingested. The illness can cause people to experience bloody and prolonged diarrhea, fever, stomach pain, and “feeling the need to pass stool (poop) even when the bowels are empty.”

Shigella can be spread through sex, drinking contaminated water, changing diapers or caring for someone sick with the illness.

Truly disgusting.

Leftists in Portland were crazy for masks and vaccines during COVID. Where are they now? Who wants to live like this?

Dysentery is self limiting in a population to only those living in filth. So just avoid the fecal matter that live in tents, and don’t drink the water. Depopulation is the order of the day.

If it is an African disease, we can expect it to spread throughout USA considering that presently our foreign invaders are mainly blacks from Africa.

>>How about pooping in a toilet instead of on the street?<<

How about stopping the invasion of foreigners at the border?

“As long as it kills Democrats, I’ll stand aside and watch.”

But they’ll still vote Democrat.

In the previous century, doctors discovered medical conditions in San Francisco that had disappeared from Western civilization so long ago that they did not have Latin names for them, like “crotch rot.”

So if the feces drys on the street and the wind whips it around it wouldn’t just be the homeless who catches it?

Shigellosis in Portland is a result of human beings pooping in the streets of Portland.

One could argue it comes with an pen Southern Border.Illegal aliens have been pooping on the streets all the way from Paraguay to Portland.Millions of them.

Fecal matter on the streets dries and become wind borne, then breathed in by people. Just like the wretched third world countries. Thank you liberal democrats. I know it is racist of me to complain.

“Liberals deserve to suffer their sins.”

If this nonsense can be confined to the west coast, I’m comfortable with that. CA, OR, and WA ... you asked for it.

Liberals say that cleaning excrement off the streets and sidewalks is racist (just one of many common-sense responses to societal problems that are claimed as such). This disease is an easily predictable result of liberals pandering to certain constituency groups.
