Cops in LA being Treated for Typhoid Fever
2019-05-31
[LA Times] At least one Los Angeles Police Department employee at the agency’s downtown L.A. station has contracted the bacteria that causes typhoid fever and is being treated for the condition, the department confirmed Wednesday evening.

Typhoid fever is a life-threatening illness with symptoms that include stomach pain, diarrhea and loss of appetite. It is not commonly found in the United States but rather typically occurs in parts of the world where water is more likely to be contaminated with sewage, according to the CDC.

People with typhoid fever or who are carriers of Salmonella Typhi bacteria can spread the bacteria to other people.
More immigrants for the sanctuary cities!

They keep the decivilization game going, we might have to.

#6  Damn. If we ever go to the big city again we will have to don hazmat suits on and then decontaminate when we leave.

Not worth it. Quarantine the bastahds, the only solution.

#2  According to the CDC, the last American urban plague epidemic was in Los Angeles in 1924-25, so a reprise is certainly possible.
