Tuesday Update: Now Over 1,000 Coronavirus Deaths In Louisiana

The Louisiana Department of Health reported 21,518 cases of coronavirus statewide with 1,013 deaths Tuesday.

“Today’s death count is the largest we have reported in a single day since this COVID-19 outbreak started and it brings the number of Louisianans we have lost to more than 1,000. That’s 1,013 people who are someone’s mother, father, sister, or brother or child or aunt or uncle. They are our neighbors, friends and coworkers. They are more than just a number on a report or graph, and as our fellow Louisianans, we all grieve alongside their families," said Gov. John Bel Edwards. "Our analysis shows that most deaths come 11.2 days after the onset of symptoms, which is why we must look at long-term data and trends. It is also why it is incumbent upon our people to follow the Stay at Home order, because just as the positive things we do now will save lives in the future, the negative things we do could threaten lives as well.”

There was a dip in the number those hospitalized with COVID-19 to 1,977 with 436 of those on ventilators.
