Mortality rate is 0.6%


How did you arrive at that number?

20 deaths/ 3300 tests = 0.006

Mortality rate isn’t calculated by number of tests done

Up 183 cases in about 12 hours that’s the biggest jump we’ve seen. EBR up to 18 cases.

Great website to track it:


It is great, but the state now looks like it has the measles now with all the dots.

That is like saying the success rate of a pot of popping corn is only 5/1000 if you only count what pops in the first 20 seconds

More like saying that is the success rate if 72% of the kernels are outside the pot.

People whose symptoms were mild (fever, cough, runny nose) were just told to self isolate w/o a test (unless you’re Sean Payton) so the actual # of cases will be under reported.

I still wish they would start posting the severity of cases in another tab.

Also, has anyone been tracking the daily numbers in a graph form to see how the curve is going for New Orleans?

On a funny note, it almost sounds like we are pulling out our hurricane tracking charts with this data and plotting the storm on a map.
