Coronavirus outbreak has caused San Francisco's homeless tent city to grow by 300% and has left the streets 'unsanitary, unsafe, and often impassable'

The streets of San Francisco's Tenderloin District have experienced a 300 per cent increase in the number of homeless tents since the coronavirus outbreak began, according to a federal lawsuit filed by the community and a law school.
Residents, businesses and the University of California Hastings College of Law are demanding the city clean up drug needles and human waste which have littered the streets and provide assistance to individuals living in sidewalk tents, arguing they are at an increased risk of contracting COVID-19.
About 400 tents currently occupy the neighborhood.
San Francisco has had 1,943 confirmed cases of the coronavirus, which has been blamed for 34 deaths.

San Francisco used to be a very pretty, if somewhat strange, city. It is now an open air latrine and garbage dump. The city collectively does not have the political will to deal with it. The voters need to grow some spine and some balls. They won't because they are too busy kissing Nancy Pelosi's ass and hating on Donald Trump to get anything else done.
My sympathy is limited.
