Cultural Enrichment: Portland Poop Crises Brings Third World Diseases

 As the old saying goes, "import the third world, become the third world." From Zero Hedge: "Portland Poop Crisis Triggers Bacteria Outbreak Normally Found In Third World." An excerpt:

    A highly contagious bacteria called "shigella" is spreading across Portland. This bacteria is common in countries found in sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia regions. 

    "Shigella spreads when one person's infected poop gets into another person's mouth through food or water, from objects or surfaces with shigella bacteria on them, or during sex," Multnomah County said, according to local news outlet KOIN 6, adding, "Shigella spreads very easily. Even a very small amount is enough to make someone sick."

    In December, there have been over 45 infections of the deadly bacteria in Multnomah, Washington, and Clackamas counties, with nine different strains found in Portland since October. For the year, 218 cases have been reported in the region. 

    "Local disease patterns suggest that fecal-oral spread through sexual contact may account for between half and more than two thirds of all cases without international travel. The rest are typically attributed to other types of person-to-person spread including outbreaks among populations with lack of hygiene, shelter, and sanitation, and among people who use illicit substances," county officials told KOIN 6 News.

One of the reasons we stopped going to public pools in this area was the spread of disease in the pool water because third-world imports let their kids crap in their diapers and then stick them in the pool without changing or cleaning them.
