Yet my Grandpa doesn’t have results from 6/22
Supposedly no one in the nursing home has reviewed results, the # of cases there hasn’t changed in the last 2 weeks

JBE forced these people to be tested yet the state cannot process the tests in a timely manner

Wait until the post Holiday Tuesday bump, we may all be dead for the report.

We likely will see a mild death bump but nothing like april.

This was expected after opening

This is incorrect as these are the number of tests NOT people tested as is the confirmed positive cases.

They do not report the number of people that have tested positive only the number of positive tests.

Hospitalizations up for three straight weeks, but still no jump in deaths. Minimal rise in vents.

I was concerned with rising hospitalization numbers, but it seems the nature of these stays is different than what we saw in Mar/Apr.

I believe you are incorrect with this line of thinking as someone in a previous thread posted the cases and deaths in a line graph. The lag was something like 8-14 days from the inflection point/spike in cases to the spike in deaths. We are WELL past that here and the deaths are not following.

The picture I saw they were definitely on the "heavier" side but they weren't morbidly obese or anything.

Also for those in Louisiana, there are 2 teenage brothers from Lafayette area with covid pneumonia -- one was airmeded to NOLA.
.

Heard this as well. Aren’t the two brothers part of triplets? If so, I would imagine medical professions and epidemiologist are going to take a very close look at their cases. At the frequency young people have severe symptoms, for two teenage brothers to both experience very severe cases seems almost impossible. But it clearly is not. I can’t imagine what their parents are going through.

You sure about that? Because the state executive branch sure doesn’t seem to think so

I saw a photo that wasn't a full photo but they didn't look small. I'm guessing that the parents/other family members would be tested at some point?

It's odd that the presumed recovered # was updated to 6/30 instead of the usual update to Sunday. Wonder if there will be a huge increase in the # presumed recovered and they are trying to "validate"

Positive tests today were 1161. There were duplicates removed.

Total number still remains the same.

In my area there are 2 large hospitals -- the Medical Director of each one did a informational video together. Both state that the majority of covid patients are on the floor in a NON ICU BED. This in itself leads me to absolutely believe that these stays are different.

That said, the LDH chart that indicated how many icu beds/beds total are available in each region indicates today that 41 ICU beds are available in Region 4 .. and 539 regular beds (I can never remember if "available beds" includes ICU beds or not).

That's pretty close to the same as last week.

From my understanding, the "regular bed" count includes everyone, not just COVID.

The family’s reposts and shares are all over my social media. The boys are 19 and 17. The younger one looks about lineman size and does in fact play football for teurlings catholic high school. The older one, who is sicker, as far as I can tell is a triplet born at about 26 weeks according to a social media post. He seems more average in size. I may be grasping at straws, but I’m wondering if being so premature would cause lifelong lung issues? All around a terrible time for the family. Dad is an anesthesiologist and mom is a nurse. They are probably too familiar with the implications of how sick their kids are.
