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.

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.

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 ?

"There are rats in City Hall and City Hall East," Greenwood added. "There are enormous rats..."
Do these enormous city hall rats have two legs or four?

From wikipedia:
“Due to fear of an outbreak of epidemic typhus, the US Government put a typhus quarantine in place in 1917 across the entirety of the US-Mexican border.”
Maybe we should do that again...

That LA ABC outlet carefully crafted news flash by using terms like “visitors” and “outside residents” carefully avoids referencing the impact of their “sanctuary city” policy.

The mayor is just being an opportunist. Just think of all the typhus and hepatitis tourism this will bring his city!
