San Diego's homeless population has been hit hardest by the highly contagious hepatitis A virus.
The outbreak, which began in November, has spread after vaccination and educational programs in the city failed to reduce the infection rate. The virus attacks the liver.
The public health declaration bolsters the county Health and Human Services Agency's ability to request state assistance to fund new sanitation measures. Areas with high concentrations of homeless people will receive dozens of portable hand-washing stations. Health workers will also use bleached-spiked water for power-washing contaminated surfaces.
Dr. Wilma Wooten, the San Diego Public Health Officer who signed the declaration into law on Friday, says the sanitation precautions are modeled after similar programs in other Southern California cities - including Los Angeles.

I'll tell you, getting out of debt is an art. I call it The Art of the Comeback, that's what I called my book. In which I tell how I was walking along Fifth Avenue in 1990. With Marla, we were married then. And what do we see on the most important and prestigious shopping street in New York City, a homeless man! Deplorable! And I said, "You see that man? Right now he’s worth $900 million more than me. Right now I’m worth minus $900 million." I owed a little more than that. Because real estate was doing very badly then. And I made some deals with people, I didn't do bankruptcy. Because you can only declare bankruptcy every so often. I came out smelling like a rose. No income tax for many, many years. Terrific! 🇺🇸
