The combination of 3rd worlders and homeless degenerates makes for “interesting” outcomes.

Typhus comes with illegal immigration and with hobo jungles crowding the streets. No pest control. No sanitation.

This article leaves a lot of stuff, all of it very bad, unsaid. In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, plus many preceding ones, it was spread by lice as well as fleas and was one of the greatest killers of humanity. Indeed it was particularly lethal in places, like jails and armies, where people were highly concentrated. As far as jails were concerned, it was known as “goal fever” and killed thousands. It was even worse in armies, having killed whole armies during the Thirty Years’ War. Its greatest slaughter of all probably occurred during Napoleon’s 1812 invasion of Russia where it probably killed about half of his initial army of about 600,000, only about 20,000 of whom survived the whole campaign.

“Goal fever,” the informal name for typhus, often contracted in jails and prisons.

I think “gaol” is French for jail, not “goal”.

Did an AI check. It’s actually the old British English word for the pokie.

NBC is gas-lighting the masses again. A previous alarm for typhoid fever, a few years back, claimed that the Jews from a trip to Hungary were the culprits.

Today, typhus is blamed for hygiene in the citizens of LA.

The MSM cannot think that the connection for third world immigrants is ever an issue.

“Community members can help protect themselves and their neighbors by keeping pets on flea control year-round, rodent-proofing their homes and making sure wildlife cannot live in or around their homes" by bulldozing every rat-infested tent city in Los Angeles.
