But other far more serious problems are lurking, Dr. Drew Pinksy said on Thursday.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">\u201cWe have a complete breakdown of the basic needs of civilization in Los Angeles right now,\u201d Pinsky told Fox New host Laura Ingraham. \u201cWe have the three prongs of airborne disease, tuberculosis is exploding, rodent-borne. We are one of the only cities in the country that doesn\u2019t have a rodent control program, and sanitation has broken down.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Pinsky said bubonic plague \u2014 also known as the \u201cBlack Death,\u201d a pandemic that killed off millions in the 14th century \u2014 is \u201clikely\u201d already present in Los Angeles. The plague is spread by infected fleas and exposure to bodily fluids from a dead plague-infected animal, with the bacteria entering through the skin and traveling to lymph nodes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Typhus, which broke out in the city last year, will likely return, Pinsky said. Already, a Los Angeles police officer has contracted typhoid fever, which infects fewer than 350 Americans each year. The various types of typhus are caused by a bacterial infection and spread by body lice, chiggers or fleas. In the 1600s, the disease decimated Germany.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">\u201cThis is unbelievable. I can\u2019t believe I live in a city where this is not Third World. This is medieval,\u201d Pinsky said, according to\u00a0<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a style=\"color: #ccffff; text-decoration: underline;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/health\/dr-drew-says-third-world-countries-would-be-insulted-to-be-compared-with-los-angeles\"><strong>Fox News<\/strong><\/a><\/span>. \u201cThird World countries are insulted if they are accused of being like this. No city on Earth tolerates this. The entire population is at risk.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Pinsky said the city simply can&#8217;t handle the demand for services, noting that many homeless are mentally ill and don&#8217;t want to accept housing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">\u201c[T]he government is somehow insisting that housing is the problem when in fact we have chronic mental illness, we have addiction, we have people who don\u2019t want to leave the streets,\u201d Pinsky said. \u201cThey literally won\u2019t take the housing if we give it to them. And that\u2019s the population that\u2019s vulnerable, and is going to get so ill this summer. It scares me for their well-being.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">The famed doctor also said California cities are suffering after allowing thousands of illegal aliens to flow in. He said the liberal politicians running most cities are \u201cdisgustingly negligent.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Homelessness is also exploding in San Francisco \u2014 the home district of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, a Democrat.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">\u201cA federal count shows the number of homeless people increased by double-digit percentages in three San Francisco Bay Area counties over two years as the region struggled to tackle the growing problem, including 17% in San Francisco and 43% in the county that includes Oakland,\u201d the\u00a0<a style=\"color: #ccffff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.springfieldnewssun.com\/news\/san-francisco-area-homeless-count-increases-double-digits\/MCBkUXXsXxw4sJotubQ1AL\/\"><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Associated Press<\/span><\/strong><\/a>\u00a0reported.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Meanwhile, a new map compiled by the group Open the Books titled \u201c2011-2019 San Francisco Human Waste Reportings\u201d features a little pin (appropriately brown) showing where city residents have reported human feces. From the looks of the map, the entire city has been covered in poop.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\"><a style=\"color: #ccffff;\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/lachlan\/status\/1120425646549864448\/photo\/1\">View image on Twitter<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/twitter.com\/lachlan\/status\/1120425646549864448<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">\u201cSince 2008, over 23,800 cases of human waste were reported in the heart of San Francisco. There were 13 reports of human feces in front of City Hall; 17 events at the U.S. Marshals office; and 67 reports at the Tenderloin police station on Eddy Street,\u201d\u00a0<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a style=\"color: #ccffff; text-decoration: underline;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/adamandrzejewski\/2019\/04\/15\/mapping-san-franciscos-human-waste-challenge-132562-case-reports-since-2008\/#28f5c0f45ea5\"><strong>Forbes<\/strong><\/a><\/span>\u00a0reported.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Even the biggest companies that call San Francisco home have not been spared. \u201cThe largest concentration of complaints was in the area of Market St., where the headquarters of companies such as Twitter and Uber are located. Nearly a hundred markers also were clustered along the block that surrounds city hall,\u201d Fox said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hideoutnow.com\/2019\/06\/bubonic-plague-likely-already-present.html\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cWe have a complete breakdown of the basic needs of civilization in Los Angeles right now,\u201d Dr. Pinsky told Fox New host Laura Ingraham<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":39262,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[61,58,22],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-189231","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-Commentary","category-Current_Affairs","category-Health"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/189231","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/39262"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=189231"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/189231\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":189236,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/189231\/revisions\/189236"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=189231"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=189231"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=189231"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
