Downtown’s Real Life Halloween Horror: Squalor and Typhus Outbreak in Los Angeles

Homeless Haunted by Hideous Hazard

We tried to find some more fun Halloween entertainment choices today, but could not ignore the real scary news stories this Halloween that are unfortunately true tales of fright. The number of patients in Los Angeles’ typhus outbreak has surpassed 100, according to NBC News.Ā Observers see a clear correlation between the rise of typhus and the area’s 47 percent increase in homelessness since 2012. #dtla #typhus #halloween

7 SCARY MISTAKES FOR HOMESELLERS TO AVOID – FREE REPORT

A typhus infection can cause headache, high fever and, in rare cases, meningitis and death. Ā Feces from infected fleas and ticks are rubbed into cuts or scrapes in the skin or rubbed into the eyes. Ā The bacterial disease can then also be transferred by people, carriers without symptoms, such as restaurant workers. It is also spread by mites including body lice and chiggers.

Nearly 10% of all L.A. Area cases have been downtown, where squalid conditions in the skid row neighborhood, such as piles of trash and conspicuous rats, have contributed to the outbreak. Department of Public Health said that no typhus deaths have been registered in 2018. While the city has taken some measures, such as increasing cleaning budgets, the dangerous conditions continue to grow. Homeless with dogs and huge rat populations continue to increase unsanitary garbage and unsafe conditions in Los Angeles streets and parks.

Horrors of Downtown Drugs, Violence and Disease

The outbreak follows other recent homeless-related outbreaks, including Hepatitis and drug gang violence. Local homeless services leaders say that local, state and federal governments are not treating this like the emergency that it is. While waiting for officials to clean up this mess, please enjoy thisĀ Rodentz horror film trailer.
