We’re still not “mass testing” people, correct?

So Louisiana makes up 1.4% of the U.S. population and contains 8.6% of the country’s coronavirus deaths so far.

Seriously?
I doubt that’s it

We're not to that point yet. The deaths will also clear up vent space. It's morbid, but true.

So is this good or bad

Correct
We aren’t even testing symptomatic people my age (39) according to my PCP

You are so right! Our phones are the most germ infested things we come into contact with.

If you look at the %pos trend, you can actually notice how they're loosening up who they test (number goes way down as you have less strict testing guidelines). But I don't think it's to the point of mass testing just yet.

I have begun sanitizing mine multiple times per day, especially after I am out in public.

That would tell me the % of positives as a metric is a flawed stat, correct?

look at the number of people tested. 3300 vs 6500 yesterday. % positive actually went up.
Could be that we are getting better at filtering out who actually needs a test.

I know that Ochsner in the East is out of available vents. Heard the same with Touro. Not sure what main campus or Baptist is like from a vent perspective, but considering they are starting to send people to Slidell, I would imagine it is a problem.

We need to get to a point where virtually everyone could walk up and get a test at any time. That's how we are going to get ahead of it and go back to normal life. Hopefully that comes soon.

Both.
Bad because more deaths and the number is high.
Good because we’re starting the beginning of the peak and once we peak, it will go down.
