There are many more than that. When testing ramps up these numbers are going to go up.

These losers dressed up as an adult reminds of the losers in Hollywood dressed up begging for money. Glad I don't live in a big city

Baton Rouge and Lafayette weren’t even testing as of two days ago.

That's not true. I know for a 100% fact that there is a lady in ICU in Baton Rouge and her test was sent off on Monday. Still waiting on the results, though. Every doctor and nurse enters her room wearing hazmat suits because the doctors strongly suspect she is positive. This lady is the mother of an acquaintance of mine.

My apologies. Haven’t even received their tests back. My point being the disparity is largely a lack of testing, not that it’s only in Nola and not anywhere else

Exactly. And we're all still here. People aren't dying in the streets.

BR just started testing in this week. Prior to Monday the CDC protocol only allowed for testing if you traveled to Italy or were in contact with someone who traveled. There were several suspected cases in BR over the last three weeks that we’re not tested because of this.

There has to be a LOT more cases than 33. They're not testing anyone. The whole state only received 1000 kits and they've used about 60 or 70 of them so far.

I seriously believe my daughter probably has the shite. Brought her to the doc this morning with flu symptoms plus shortness of breath. She had the flu shot, an LSU student exposed to people from every corner of the planet. No test. Sent her home and said to bring her to the ER if the shortness of breath gets worse...
