   Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country Dark Matter [my scoffingly uncritical tinning]

   “One of the problems is that people may be confusing endemic and epidemic typhus,” says Dr. Tim Brewer, a professor of medicine and a member of the division of infectious diseases at UCLA’s David Geffen School of Medicine.
   
   Typhus is not a single disease, but rather a group of diseases caused by different strains of bacteria. Unlike typhoid fever, which is spread by person-to-person contact, typhus gets into the human bloodstream through fleas, ticks, or lice. Murine typhus, a rarely fatal strain spread by fleas, is endemic to Los Angeles—it was here long before us and will be here long after us. Epidemic typhus, which is spread by body lice, is exceedingly rare in the United States. It occurs most often in areas of extreme deprivation, such as South Sudan or 15th century Europe, and has a much higher likelihood of causing death.
   
   “That’s not what’s going on in Los Angeles,” Brewer says. “The problem is not the presence of the homeless people that’s causing the murine typhus outbreaks. It’s the presence of the rat-infected fleas.”

   fleas infect the homeless which in turn infect other human and animals.

   The joke is that the fleas must be giants if they have rats infesting them instead of the other way around.

   oh that's right
   large homeless population + lack of hygiene + shitting and pissing everywhere + aids
   Cities are the perfect location for the creation of advanced human-spread disease how perfect it's just as how Deus Ex predicted

   It's not the homeless, rats or fleas that cause the health damaging infections...it's the bacteria and/or viruses.
