Unhealthy, terrible living conditions, overcrowded, demoralized, vulnerable.... and yet? This issue is so obvious. And I completely forgot about it for such a long time. 1047 homeless people died out of 52,765, in Los Angeles, in 2019. In 2020 in L.A., less than 1000 died. By 2021 the population is estimated at 161,548.
If you try to find out how many how many covid deaths there are in 2021 so far among that population, the figure is mysteriously absent in online articles. It appears to me that the homeless people in Los Angeles have not cooperated with the pandemic death toll very well at all. If you go to L.A now after not being there for a few years, the place swarms with street dwellers like a stirred up ant colony. It is like WW Z without the zombies.

You may have a point, but the link you gave is talking about stuff like isopropyl alchohol (IPA), not rum and whiskey. Booze may still play a part, but your article doesn't support that.
Notice that I didn't call you "retarded" like that handshake loser did. I'm tired of these noobs.
My article doesn't support it, but this one does:

Bonus article of booze with high enough proof to do so:

I will admit, however, that I thought a lower concentration (like 40%) would do the trick, so I'll admit that I was half wrong.
Potato-based stuff knocks me on my ass. That's vodka and here in Japan there is shochu. Does a number on me. I can drink several whiskey highballs and just get buzzed, even when mixing them strong, because I have more of a tolerance.
