Louisiana Covid Update - Day 51

On this, the 5th day of May o the Christian calendar, and Cinco de Mayo,  and the 51st day on Governor Edwrds petty tyrant calendar, let's see how the numbers stack up.

Total cases count is at 29,996, a gain of 369 since yesterday.  Tomorrow, we'll break 30K sure as God makes little green apples.
Fatalities bumped over 2000, standing at 2042.  That's an increase of 51 since yesterday.  Some are calling those numbers into question, with reports of individual deaths being counted, whether they had covid or not.  If you accept that number, you're either gullible, or scared.  Your choice.
Hospitalizations are up 10, to 1512, but the vent count is down 26, to 194.  If all of the people they took off vents were fatalities, that would not account for the increased death count.  Makes you wonder doesn't it?

My home parish of Rapides is tallying 8 more cases, for a total of 308, and they've added one to the death toll.  We currently stand at 11.

The governor is not giving a press briefing today.  This week they are scheduled for Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.

Belle thinks she would like Mexican food today, so I'll be calling in an order before very much longer.
