re: Louisiana COVID-19 - July 24, 2020 Update: 103,734 cases - 3,603 deaths - 1,199,726 tested

The numbers interest me. I will give La credit, they have jumped leaps and bounds with reporting data. They are doing a shite job explaining the data though.

There is always going to be gaps and corrections in any data. The fact that La is being so open with their data correction helps. No one looks past the initial reporting day though.

I could only imagine the melt if they decided to wait 5-7 days to report data to minimize corrections.

It doesn't help that a spreadsheet like what is on the first page has tons of data that hasn't been corrected and paints a false picture.
