We can do totals over the whole state if you like. There are approximately 33k cases where the person is black. 25k for white. In a state that is 62% white and 33% black. As far as which parishes I chose, I picked the largest ones at the top of the list since the margin for error is lowest for those. It was a simple choice of more data.

You tried to catch me in a "gotcha" but you played yourself.

I'm a big stats guy. Used to do this a lot for LSU baseball but since that was cancelled, this has been my new hobby. If you're going to question me, better come at me with more than just "trying to make an excuse."

Yes. He takes about 7 or 8 questions. But it's the woke media so they start them off like "With cases surging and no end in sight..." and then ask about the dangers of schools opening.


I figured that.

I wish I was a reporter. I would roast him about riots/protests, and asking about data proving that having bars open increase Covid cases, etc. Instead these reporters are such fricking pussies that they give JBE the crook lay up questions that won't make him look bad. It's frickin disgusting.

This was your first post in response to me:

What does that have to do with anything when we’re talking about overall cases? Just want to excuse yourself?
It wasn't a troll, but I accept your attempted crawfish.

it's like getting an automated phone menu

press 1 if you want to hear jbe say wear a mask

press 2 if you want to hear jbe to say flatten the curve

press 3 if you want to hear jbe say bars are bad

press 4 if you want to hear jbe say prayer and fasting

if you want to hear jbe say protests add to the problem... hang and try again.

I wasn’t talking about my first response to you. I was talking about my first post in this thread which you responded too.

So wait, they are counting ppl who didn’t go to the hospital bc it covid, that now have no choice to be in the hospital as covid hospitalizations?

quote:

Correct

They are considering those COVID related

Seriously

I missed the press conference but just to clarify - surely they aren’t actually including these in the COVID hospitalization numbers that are released daily?

Reading this thread, it sounds more like they are just speaking generally saying the uptick in non-COVID hospitalizations is related to COVID because of deferred treatment, elective surgeries, whatever. That’s a lot different than saying they are including these in the COVID hospitalization numbers, which feels like a stretch even for JBE.

I will say that they aren’t lying about hospitals filling up, at least in the BR area. I have a relative who is waiting to be transferred to a BR hospital now (not for COVID) and both BRG and OLOL are saying they can’t take the transfer. Whether it makes more sense to blame this on COVID or the previous response by the government/hospitals is another conversation.
