Louisiana Covid Update - Day 54

On this beautiful, cool, breezy Saturday , the 54th day of the petty tyrant's stay at home order, lets see what the numbers look like.

Louisiana is ramping up testing.  We're showing 31.417 active cases, an increase of 532 since yesterday.
Fatalities total 2194 today, an increase of 40.
Hospitalizations are down to 1333, down 26.  Of those, the vent count is dropping too, to 165.

My home parish of Rapides is showing a total disease count of 351, an increase of 13 in the past 24 hours.  Before you freak out, a lot of those people are recovered, and the total case count only reflects only 0.27% (yeah, a little over a quarter of one percent of the population).  If one quarter or one percent is a crisis, hen we need to redefine the term.

We opened up the shooting club for the first time in six weeks, and had 8 shooter come out to enjoy the cool air and the fellowship. 

We are expecting that the governor will announce his opening plans during his press conference on Monday.  If he doesn't hell have hell to pay from the legislature, who is poised to show him what the phrase "checks and balances" means.
