In 1947 there were 1.9 million citizens of the city of Los Angeles. Who was going to care for 1.9 million feverish, screaming people, their purpuric skin bursting open, their dripping subcutaneous fat oozing yellowish, pus-like blood?

You don’t think they’ll drop the Bomb on Los Angeles in a heartbeat to contain an army of delirious, sepsisized necrotic humans?
Juvenile Hall. Yeah. That’s where they took li’l Paul.
