This is why say that “progressives” are really “regressives”
Due to the city allowing tent cities and filth fester in the streets ... now there is an outbreak of a disease not seen since the Middle Ages . Wow
Liberal policies at work.

The city of Los Angeles is suffering from an outbreak of a "middle ages" and "pioneer days" disease —typhus — typically found in homeless populations.
“Those encampments appear to be where typhus and other communicable diseases thrive: "People in Koreatown step outside their fancy condos to find tents, rotting food and human feces at their doorsteps. Buses and trains have become de facto shelters, and thousands of people sleep in fear and degradation."
“"It felt like somebody was driving railroad stakes through my eyes and out the back of my neck," Deputy City Attorney Liz Greenwood told Local 4 news. "Who gets typhus? It's a medieval disease that's caused by trash."
Greenwood speculates that she got typhus fever from fleas riding on the rats that occasionally infest Los Angeles city buildings. Those fleas get their typhus from piles of garbage surrounding homeless encampments throughout the city.”

Typhus was common in the U.S. through the 1940s — more than 5,400 people contracted the disease in 1944 — when rats that thrived in busy ports, such as Galveston, carried fleas infected with the bacteria, Rickettsia typhi. An aggressive campaign using the since-banned insecticide DDT largely eliminated the problem in most U.S. areas — fewer than 100 cases were reported nationwide by the mid-1950s — though it never went away in the Rio Grande Valley.
Van Deusen said the disease is increasingly being spread by cat fleas, which are more widespread and opportunistic, feeding on a wide variety of animals. Opossums and feral cats are now major parts of the cycle of transmission.

Since when is Texas (the other area where this is a real problem) "progressive"/"regressive" and liberal? Seems like you liberals are stuck in LA and don't get out. Come to Texas. We have the same problem.
