It's Saturday, but Covid doesn't take a day off. Let's see what the numbers look like today.
Total case count is at 34,117. a modest increase of 280, considering all the testing that is supposed to be going on. Governor Edwards wants 20,000 per month.
Fatalities, while tragic, is at 2413 today. That is 31 more than yesterday.
The hospital census, probably the most important number, is down to 1028. That's 63 folks who either recovered or died. Of those folks still in the hospital, only 123 are on ventilators.
My home parish of Rapides shows a case count of 437 with 14 deaths.
We have done everything they have asked us to do, and it's time to open the economy. Not in stages, but wide upen, with the same vigor they closed it. Anything else is total bullshit.
That it is. Thankfully Texas is already doing that!
