[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yeah, I have no idea where these comments about street drug use and feces "everywhere" are coming from.  The tone of the comments seem like they are coming from one person.  They also seem like the nonsense "no go zones" statements that were coming out of Fox News last year about Paris and other European cities.

I know people who live there and others who visit periodically, and none of them have mentioned any of these issues.  Could you find some awful things in a few places?  Of course, just like any city (or even suburb or rural area!).  But "everywhere"?  That seems ridiculous.[/quote]

They are having a huge uptick in hepatitis in California.

From feces on the street and needles.[/quote]

And when they had the hep outbreak in Honolulu last year, a friend told me people were cautioned about using public bathrooms (think: Starbucks) and touching communal food service items (again, think: Starbucks creamer, milk, etc.). Basically, be careful about touching anything an addict or homeless person might have touched. Friend works in public health btw.

The homeless and drug situation has reached a whole new level in SF. You can google news stories in the last six months that include photographic evidence. I haven't been to SF for a few years, but I began to notice the difference the last time I was there. But I work in homeless advocacy, so I admittedly notice such things. [/quote]
