LOS ANGELES (CBSLA) — A massive outbreak of flea-borne typhus has hit downtown Los Angeles, the county Department of Public Health said Thursday. Health officials say they are investigating several cases of flea-borne typhus, a disease that infected fleas can spread to humans and that it's spreading rapidly. This is the first time the flea-borne typhus has broken into an outbreak in the United States and is normally associated with cities in Mexico.Mmmmmmm, I wonder where in the hell the fleas can be coming from?
