FWIW the LDH website data has not once tallied with the total reported census data from the hospitals on any given day. Today the reported census for all hospitals statewide is 2421. This is the number that will eventually be used tomorrow on the LDH dashboard. I can almost guarantee that number will be adjusted somehow.

If true that's only an increase of 71. Today's increase was 103. Seems like a good trend considering Monday and Tuesday were +128 and +135 respectively.

Wife works at lane in the ER. They are full of covid. 37 sounds about right. ER is holding a lot of patients at well. They just don’t have the room, being such a small hospital.

Anyone heard anything about hospital ships being deployed to New Orleans and Baton Rouge?
