The 99%’ers have ringworm.
City officials are reporting a ringworm outbreak at Occupy Santa Cruz.
Via Verum Serum:
They also are reporting a possible scabies outbreak.
The Santa Cruz Sentinel reported:
Police issued four tickets from Friday to Monday morning to people smoking in the park and having an open flame, police spokesman Zach Friend said. One woman also was arrested for an outstanding warrant.
Sheriff’s deputy April Skalland said deputies have issued 16 tickets for illegal lodging and arrested seven people around the protest since Oct. 7. The arrests have been for being drunk in public, being under the influence of drugs, and possession of drugs and drug paraphernalia, Skalland said.
Police said there have been reports of ringworm and scabies at the camp in recent days. County officials did not immediately respond to requests for comment about health conditions at the camp.
Lane said he planned to continue talks with Occupy campers this week.
Yup. They’re just like the tea party.

James, how are these idiots going to keep “clean and dry” when they’re taking dumps on the sidewalk in rush hour traffic?!
Ace commented:
The insanity of so-called civic leaders!
“Instead, they said the injunction they are seeking through a lawsuit filed last week would give them the authority to remove the campsite at a later date while they work with Occupy representatives to keep San Lorenzo Park free of drugs, alcohol and human feces.”
They’re going to “work” with the Occupoopers to keep human feces out of the streets! LOL

OWS is turning into a giant ad for getting a job and working your way up so you can afford a house with plumbing in a clean neighborhood, and topical medications to help you fit in.
Opaobie commented:
An OWSer walked into a doctor’s office with a parrot perched on his head. The parrot said, “Hey, Doc, can you cut this shanker off my A$$?”

“One ring (worm) to rule them all…”

Scabies takes 21 days to incubate, doesn’t it? That fits the timeline. Makes my itchy just thinking about it. Ick!
