Even bars with food permits were open in phase 1, and are closed now.
Someone educate me on this subject. There are bars by me that serve food that are open.
And business is very good if you know what I mean.

as of July 29th, the positivity rate is still at 13%
It is pretty much statistically impossible for the daily rate to be 13%, but the data dumps to be around 8%
If that was accurate, we would see dates in the past dropping to very low numbers to account for it, which they arent
Something extremely funky is going on with this metric

I'm not even going to pretend to know how they are deriving these numbers

There's no way the daily % numbers they show on there are correct. Unless the lower days account for half the test results or something.
Am I missing something?
The math does not work.

I'm not even going to pretend to know how they are deriving these numbers
For example
Our overall percent positive is 8.67% 120,846cases/1,393,910tests
However, according to their data on percent positive per day, only 35 days were at or below 8.67%, with the lowest days being in the 7% range
There are 108 days over the average of 8.67%, with weeks worth over 15%
That in no way adds up to being possible
I would like to see fightin tigers justify this

I think there are some that we’re able to quickly re-permit as restaurants. This includes Bulldog and Olive-or-Twist in Baton Rouge. Not sure what level of accounting genius is needed to keep their food sales high enough, but by and large being there is no different than being in a restaurant, just with better drinks and less food.
I know for Mandeville, Barley Oak and Interference were open for Phase 1 and are closed now.

I think it is the bar closing mandate that it is working

On the downside of this shite.
It more appears that movement in the data correlates with behavior. The initial shutdown worked but was unsustainable. It’s looking like the mask mandate is working and it is sustainable.
If everyone does their part, we can get back.

For all you people that don’t think this shite is real, my step son is on way to ER after being positive for the crap. He’s only 44 and has zero health issues. Please take this virus seriously....

So what is the plan when we can stop wearing masks and the virus starts spreading again? Seriously. It isn't just going to go away so are we going to go back phases every time we have spikes? Are the pro mask wearers just going to say wear a mask FOREVER?

What is to explain? California has high population density an a lot of idiots. I can no more explain California than I can explain Ville Platte.

This won’t be popular but too bad if other stuff opens and bars don’t by moving to Phase 3. The guidelines made a mistake initially by putting bars too high up in the phases. Downvote away.
Kids outdoor sports make way more sense to be earlier than bars

a few days don't make a trend. keep wearing your mask, and better yet, don't leave your house. Covid isn't done with you.

Uptick was slowing before masks.
N.O. got hit.
Rest of state this time.
Guys on Death Row in California getting it. They get food through a slot. Masks don't prevent infection.
These curves look the same everywhere.
Sweden and Switzerland didn't do masks and look same.
Greater slopes in higher population density areas.
