[Tilted Irish Kilt]

The mayors office has been contacted in an attempt to fumigate downtown offices in an attempt to control the outbreak.
Typhus is treated with antibiotics. It is not transmitted person-to-person.
Symptoms usually surface a week or two weeks after exposure and can include high fever, headaches, chills, body aches and pains and a rash.
Typhus is treated with antibiotics and can be fatal if left untreated.

Only in L.A.

What a pit!!!

Filthy Democrat run shithole.

Infectious Disease - Typhus Expanding in LA (Calif.)

Previous attempts to control rats and feral cats as vectors has been unsuccessful.
Typhus infection has now spread from downtown and into the suburbs.

Wait until the next financial crisis forces Cali government into default. Then see the fruits of degraded American progressivism really come to the fore.

I can’t lie - I am looking forward to it.

Typhus-carrying fleas and rats demand sanctuary, too!

[Steely Tom]

Something else the MSM didn’t have time to cover when Obama was president.

[Leaning Right]

Los Angeles is a sanctuary city. I wonder if that has anything to do with this typhus outbreak.

Typhus was probably the worst vaccine given in boot camp. Everybody got sick. goobs of mucus and flem. hacking and coughing for a few days, fever chills, sore all over. Anybody back me up on this ?

[DownInFlames]

Yes

[OKSooner]

Oh great. Now guess who all’s going to be showing up at all the ERs with symptoms.

When you import enough people from turd-world countries, you become a turd-world country. They feel right at home.

Having thoughts of “Dr Zhivago”...

[AppyPappy]

They may have Typhus but they feel good about themselves.

[Ikeon]

I could be wrong, it might have been typhoid fever. we got about 8 vaccines in one day. one recuit actually died that night. He was moaning in bed, they called the ambulance , the paramedics came and we were told he died.

When it hits the gated communities of liberal ‘elites’ the CDC might take action... and I stress ‘might’.

[exDemMom]

Typhus was probably the worst vaccine given in boot camp.

I did fine with that one. None of the vaccines ever did more than cause some localized inflammation, which dissipated over a couple of days.

The worst vaccine was the smallpox one. It itches like crazy.

I always thought it would be the cesspool formerly known as San Francisco would be the first in California for an outbreak of bums-illegals typhus-carrying havoc (B.I.T.C.H.) disease.

[little jeremiah]

Typhus? Where did that come from? I guess spreading by illegals, homeless and filth in general, thus increasing rat population. I did not know that cats could be vectors. Different species host different kinds of fleas. Fleas that live on rats cannot live on cats. Maybe cat fleas can also carry typhus.
