LAPD Employs Help Of Robot To Fight Germs At Central Division Station

Along with LightStrike, which uses high-intensity light to kill germs in rooms, the department also installed a device called HealthySole that uses ultraviolet rays to kill germs on shoes.

The problems facing this facility were highlighted in late May when an officer was infected with salmonella typhi — which typically comes from infected food or water — while at least two other people were sent home experiencing similar symptoms.

The Los Angeles Times reported that the LAPD was fined more than $5,000 by the state Department of Industrial Relations last month for failing to tell employees how typhus fever is transmitted, what the symptoms are and how to prevent it. The state also faulted the department for not having an extermination program in place to control populations of rats, fleas, roaches, gnats, mosquitoes or grasshoppers — all of which were present at the station during a November inspection, the Times reported.

Typhus-carriers in L.A. government offices?!?! Amazing. It was typhus that killed so many concentration camp internees as Germany collapsed and WWII drew to a close. Amazing.

Germ FIGHTING robot? Using the word fight is a racist act. It was commonly used to incite minorities by their oppressor warlords. I demand they use the phrase “germ re-education robot”....it sounds more inclusive and like education should be...it is almost free and used only one way

Sarc//off

with all the BILLIONS of dollars Los Angeles is spending on the Homeless they could easily Buy Margie’s House and turn it into a Giant Homeless and Rehab Center. The neighborhood is full of Proud Liberal Progressives and I am sure they would Fell good about themselves if their Tax Dollars were spent this way.
