The numbers today show that a total of 29,340 have contracted the vile disease across the state. That's 200 more cases than yesterday.
Fatalities today total 1969. It's a lagging indicator, only 19 more than yesterday. Of course, we mourn for those neighbors, because even one is too many.
Hospitalizations are listed at 1530, with 213 on ventilators. The hospitalizations dropped by 15, and the vent count went up by five (5).
The headline in the Baton Rouge Advocate says that:
Coronavirus deaths in East Baton Rouge outstrip gun deaths; statewide more than flu deathsThat's a good think, I reckon.
My hoe parish of Rapides is reporting today a total of 281 cases, up from 273 yesterday. The deaths are stable at 10.
