The trend of the numbers continues to evidence considerable success in the policies of both the shutdown and the hand washing, distancing, masks, etc.
It's time for JBE to declare a clear victory for the citizens of the state. No need to extend anything beyond the expiration next week.

Ya know it doesn't have to be an either/or choice. It can be both stupid and plain incompetent. The latter is actually my choice.

Interesting fact: I go to the grocery store nearly everyday because I’m a lazy millennial who doesn’t plan ahead for meals. I have noticed 90% of the people in grocery stores are 60+. They are all wearing masks. I want to know the age demographics on the new cases we are seeing daily. I’d bet it’s not young, healthy folks.

Looking at more testing in hot spots & nursing homes
Looking to hire 250 people to contact trace, up to 700 or more if needed
Sales Force & another company hired to handle software?
All LA employees in call center
Up & running 5/15
High school graduates that are good on phone & entering date & compassionate can apply
200k tests to be done in month of May
Mobile labs going into communities that have those who don’t have transportation

Dr. speaking now
Contact tracing couldn’t be done early on, cases increased too fast
It’s now critical to move forward & relax SAH orders
If you are positive they are going to ask who you came in contact with recently
It will be private when they reach out to those you came in contact with
Those people are to be self quarantined for 14 days
My comment: it’s kinda late to worry about containing the virus
3.5 million spent for state lab, they are doing prison & nursing home tests
Need to make sure rural communities are getting tested

This graph isn’t helping their SAH requirements

Did he just say "if we have 300,000 tests and 200,000 tracers that's still not enough to keep a handle on this"?
Posted on 5/8/20 at 3:23 pm to OldManRiver
Yes he did

Again @LouisianaGov stresses that even with enough testing and contact tracing to reopen, virus will continue to spread and people will need to be vigilant and acknowledge the "new normal." #lalege #lagov

Congrats Louisiana for electing this POS governor. Honor and Code though.
