Mayor Dipshit announced the following:


quote:

Lafayette City-Parish Hall, the Clifton Chenier Center and the Public Works Administration building are closed to the public.

The 8 p.m. - 6 a.m. parish-wide curfew instated on March 16, 2020 and lifted on May 28, 2020 is reinstated for unaccompanied minors beginning this evening. Minors who work will be considered on a case-by-case basis.

Compliance checks will be increased by the Lafayette Police and Fire Departments at bars, restaurants and retailers.

Loitering and gathering outside of facilities, or on public sidewalks downtown Lafayette is prohibited.
Lafayette Consolidated Government will remain open and all employees remain at work. All drive up services will remain open.

Lafayette Consolidated Government is implementing a COVID-19 testing program for its employees, including those who interact with the public.


quote:

“We need all of our citizens, especially our young people to be aware of the continued importance of testing, social distancing and preventative hygiene,” Guillory said. "As always, the solution to this public health emergency rests with us. Only our diligence and vigilance will bring about the result we all want. We will continue to follow federal guidelines, work closely with the governor’s office, our Acadiana leaders and Mayors from across the parish."

Lafayette Parish and Acadiana as a whole has been trending in the wrong direction



quote:

Hospitalizations in the region are also increasing. On June 10, there were 38 patients admitted in regional hospitals with a COVID-19 diagnosis. On Friday, June 26, there are 95 patients admitted in our region with a COVID-19 diagnosis, Dr. Stefanski said.

He's just a dipshit. I don't disagree with his moves here.

Speaking with an ER physician tonight, he said that this batch of admits are much less sick than he saw in the first wave.

The number of cases makes no sense

I assume they mean number of new cases per day?

So younger patients.

All of these charts and graphs don’t mean shite if they aren’t showing age

Yeah I've read that a few places. The coronavirus task force also mentioned how using steroids has really helped patients who were sick so it sounds like they're figuring out how to treat the ones who really need it. We just need to make sure we can keep our hospitals running smoothly.

Look at the x axis and you'll see that it's by day

Why don’t these dumb mother frickers understand that the more young people that get exposed to the virus the better? It’s the quickest way to build herd immunity. Isolate the people at risk and let the rest of us live! The virus isn’t going to magically go away by social distancing and setting curfews.

It is like the people in AL who are screaming we are having a "second wave". No, you idiots, we are having a first wave because we shut the whole damn state down for 1,000 cases, then reopened. The virus didn't just go away because we made everyone stay home for a month and a half.

Where is the best place to test in Lafayette?

My dad needs testing, but he tried one of the walk in clinics and they told him he would have to wait 6 hours.. which seems beyond absurd.

I think he's looking into some CVS program now..
