It's a rainy Thursday afternoon. The grandkids came over earlier to swim, and I made a big pot of stew. The rain started about noon, so we brought the kids in to eat. Now, they're gone home, so we can look at the covid numbers.
Total case count is up to 33,489. A jump of 827 since yesterday, but this number will become more ad more irrelevant as testing increases. Here in Louisiana we have tested over 247,000 people since we started.
Fatalities increased by 36, to 2351.
Hospital census is at 1193, one less than yesterday. Vent count is down 7, to 140.
My home parish of Rapides is reporting 417 cases with the same 13 deaths. The case count is up 23, not a huge increase reflective of testing.
This is the last day of the stay-at-home order. Tomorrow we enter Phase 1. There was lots of talk onn the radio this morning about how slowly we're opening, and very few people inntend to cooperate with the contact tracing.
I hve a sneaking hunch that this process is going to be like hwatching a monkey try to have sex with a football.
