As of yesterday they have performed 5 tests.
Your girlfriend wouldn’t meet the current criteria to be tested.

In Louisiana, for testing, for now:
Criteria to Guide Evaluation of Persons Under Investigation for COVID-19
1)Clinical Features
Fever1 or signs/symptoms of lower respiratory illness (e.g. cough or shortness of breath)
AND
Epidemiologic Risk
Close contact with a laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 patient within 14 days of symptom onset
2)Clinical Features
Fever1 and signs/symptoms of a lower respiratory illness (e.g., cough or shortness of breath)
AND
Epidemiologic Risk
A history of travel from affected geographic areas2 within 14 days of symptom onset
3)Clinical Features
Fever1 with severe acute lower respiratory illness (e.g., pneumonia, ARDS [acute respiratory distress syndrome]) requiring hospitalization and without alternative explanatory diagnosis (e.g., influenza)
AND
Epidemiologic Risk
No identified source of exposure
1Measured as = 100.4°F.
2Affected geographic areas are defined as countries assigned a level 2 or 3 travel health notice by CDC or other areas determined to have sustained community transmission

IMO, we shouldn’t be admitting positive cases or quarantining them in negative pressure rooms in order to maintain hospital flow and manage the resources we have.
My state and county department of health just released guidelines that align with WHO.
They are telling us airborne isolation isn’t needed for suspect cases. Just droplet, contact, with eye protection. No negative pressure room needed.
Only time negative pressure and airborne iso needed is if you will be performing a procedure that could aerosolize particles (bronchoscopy, intubation, etc, etc).
They are also telling us we don’t need to automatically quarantine every single healthcare worker that may have been exposed. They sent specific guidelines on what to do in those situations.

Lsunurse, they are bullshitting you... there's not enough neg-pressure rooms to quarantine everyone who should be, so they say it's not necessary.
If what they said was true, it wouldn't have spread through a cruise ship the way it did.

I find it interesting that it seems to cluster in one particular hot spot. This Lombardy region is getting crushed. China looked the same with Wuhan. We need to find our hot spot.
Posted on 3/7/20 at 11:52 am to VABuckeye
It’s possible. But right now they are probably the state that is testing the most. So is that why we think it’s the hotspot or is it reality?
Posted on 3/7/20 at 11:52 am to deeprig9
A cruise ship is tight quarters. Just need to be within 6 feet of someone with it for it to spread.
And considering this is from my state department of health who is working with WHO and has a physician on staff from the CDC.....I’m gonna guess they know a lot more than you.
