Typhoid fever in the US?

[Anonymous]

Had typhoid when living in Philippines. Was getting very dehydrated and weak. Fortunately our residence community had on site med crew who spotted it, took me to their place and gave me antibiotic and water drip. Would have likely been a goner without their diagnosis and help as we had no idea what to do or that it was so dangerous if not correctly and quickly treated

Conditions (constant diarrhea)  came on very rapidly



It recurred a year later and once more but we knew what med to take (and stocked it) and stopped it cold

I thought typhoid fever wasn't a major problem anymore in SE Asia.

Not sure. Most locals have antibodies.



Sewage running in gutter etc. in some places doesn't seem to affect locals but  is a setup for some foreigners

I did hear that the Philippines had open sewers.

Whether deliberate or overflow because of insufficient capacity, we did often see it running in gutters in several places



It doesn't seem to affect locals or "all" ex pats .. but it almost did me in. Fortunately we lived in a compound that had good help once hubby called on it



To put context, we lived there over 20 years ago

So, it wasn't the norm?

It was quite common, albeit not so much in downtown Manila or in wealthier communities

In October, LA Mayor Garcetti promised to clean up the heaps of rat-infested trash piling up around Los Angeles to help combat the Typhus epidemic.



Even though the Mayor allocated millions of dollars to help clean up the streets in LA, especially Skid Row, known as "the Typhus Zone," there are still mountains of trash everywhere and the infectious disease is worsening.

 

Several months ago the large piles of trash were cleared out, but the problem is back and much worse than before.



Last fall, typhus began spreading across the homeless population through fleas that live on the rats that rummage through the trash and Liz Greenwood, the Deputy City Attorney who works at City Hall contracted the disease.

Another democrat run city.

This has the makings of a health crisis unprecedented in modern times.



A typhus epidemic will kill children and the elderly.



It should not happen in a modern, first world nation.



Something is very wrong in the US if an outbreak takes hold.

Erica was right, but she lives in LA.

Yeah, sounds like its homelessness, and a government leaving trash all over the streets. From what I understand it several cities in CA let the homeless crap all over the sidewalks and they do nothing about it.



This was a prior story about homeless people defecating in the streets in LA county, leading to a hepatitis outbreak.

Typhus doesn't understand geography. A breakout could be catastrophic.
