Hard Rock demo has been postponed indefinitely. Can't have 250 people on the jobsite at once.

Crazy to think that Louisiana may overtake Texas in the number of cases.
Unless Texas has changed from its 34 cases, this has already happened.

Yup, but let's close everything
10 of the New Orleans cases are from the same nursing home as well I believe

Because the world operates based on the idea that a high number of people will get this virus. At 3-4% mortality rate (pace virus currently holds) and even 100 million positives.. you’re talking about 3-4 million people dying, that’s a scary thought if it doesn’t slow down and drags out for a long time.

It’s going to double just about every day for the next two weeks in my opinion.
The rise in positives will correlate to the amount of testing. It appears that warm weather and humidity is fatal to the virus. I think it dies out rapidly in Louisiana.

Technically, it should double every 4 days, but with the availability of test kits it may skew the results to greater than that.

You realize the average day of death after contracting the disease is over 18 days right?
Our first confirmed test likely still hasn’t even reached that point.

Well that’s a stupid assumption.

Texas department of health isn't releasing numbers?
When I go I just see information on prevention

So doubling each day for two weeks gives us what number?
I’m really fricking dumb at math but I’m coming up with 417,792. I’m probably embarrassingly off with that figure
If that’s correct, then I’m wrong - it WON’T double every day for two weeks. That would be insane.

ow has Baton Rouge not been on the board yet? What are they hiding?
Limited testing to this point. But there are several likely cases in BR hospitals waiting for tests to come back. If they come back positive as expected BR may join the list today.

I didn't see anything from them either. I had to look for news articles. So it's probably not incredibly reliable.

It’s gone from 1 to 51 in five days. Two of the biggest population centers, Lafayette and Baton Rouge, are only just now really ramping up testing. New Orleans is still not remotely testing everyone they can.
Let’s be clear. Way over 1,000 people already have this. And in two weeks it’ll be way over 10,000. It’s just a matter of how many get tested

Yeah I doubt anywhere is reliable yet

There are probably hundreds of people in BR that have it. How many people have the symptoms and just ride it out and never see a doctor? I'd bet more than actually go to one.
