Louisiana has been hit hard due to Mardi Gras tourism. The timing was bad. Mardi Gras in New Orleans was not cancelled and occurred just before things started going South. Over half of the LA cases are in Orleans parish.
The biggest lesson of this whole crisis will be humility...
Every country, every state in the US, went with the totally irrational "Oh well, we're still not concerned, no way it will hurt us like it did our neighbours, right? We're so much smarter and the virus will definitely stop at the border, no need to take precautionary measures to avoid the exact same think that happened in Italy, then in Spain, then in France, then in New York that were all late to react... It won't happen to US because well... it's US.
The virus was all over NY, with thousands of people dying in overwhelmed Italy, but people were still packing on Cali beaches or for Mardi Gras in louisiana while students were partying for spring break... And oh surprise, California and Louisiana now shut down everything as new clusters of the pandemic. Who could have guessed?
Another irrational decision was to close borders but let YOUR citizens come back home, since the virus as everybody knows is making difference between nationality... When it first hit China, every country sent planes to get their people back and the virus with them, ending up hurting considerably much more people than they took care of... Same with all the americans coming back home from Europe after Trump decided to close borders, then thousands of people packing in US airports...
Lots of lifes could have been saved with a bit more humility and not reasoning in terms of nationality or iden y but globally. Sign of the times, some would way, where people tend to analyze and bring back everything to THEIR iden y and community while earth is more than ever a global village.
And courage to you mate, on the "Love boat".

Ouch!
Over 390kdeaths by hiv and all on tv ads about Sex
Notice killing babies is on top of list
What preventative measures or effective treatments do we have against CV?
warning: you're trying to have a conversation with ducks, logic not need apply.
Dude stay away from California And big Liberial cities
Duh !
Says somebody who doesn't give a damn about people once born. I always love religious people who pick and choose what they want out of the bible especially in the US where people try to become rich knowing that rich people won't go to heaven. Why do you hate socialism whan Jesus was a socialist?
Plus, a group of cells incapable of living on their own is not a baby, it is part of the woman's body not yours, that's her choice not yours.
Christains are the biggest hypocrites around.
Next to Liberals
That is insane. Everyone who boards should be tested regularly. The military has a higher rate of infection per-capita, and it's no wonder why.
Stay safe, best you can.
go help the needy like Jesus ; we’ll try to get a universal healthcare system in the US.
they are still trying to find the definition of the word facts in a dictionary.
Now the story is Trump acted perfectly and is infallible AND he was distracted from the virus by impeachment.
How dare Dems perform their cons utional duty and hold a criminal to account!
Extortion and bribery -
did those two crimes commit themselves- or did dear leader have a part in it?
Man I feel for Spain and France between the two countries over 13,000 dead from virus and rising fast. I can only imagine how much pain and heart ache people are going through Europe right now. I hope and pray for them and may we quickly find a vaccine to eradicate this plague.
Stay Safe Everyone
Vaccine is still a year away in the absolute best case because (1) we don't know if any of our candidates actually work and (2) we don't know if they have side effects worse than the virus. So vaccine is a long term worry. For now we just gotta hope a reasonable treatment can be found.
This is a show. Both France and Spain have leaders who reacted too slowly, fortunately they were not stupid enough to say that the problem will go away by itself like others, but still their slowness in reacting has caused and will cause more deaths. Unfortunately prayers have never saved anybody so we have to hope that our medical scientists find a solution quickly. There is a big study in Europe right now over 3200 cases to see if chloroquine could be the cure. Professor Raoult in Marseille, the doctor who found the medicine to be effective, has not conducted his study with comparative groups so it is hard to say if it is working or not. Confinement will flatten the curve for sure but how do we get out of it without causing a second wave?

So predictable are some of you; now you’re worried? Lol
I’ll give you some credit back home, you did at least show some humility.
No wonder u bash Christianity u can't even interpret simple verses right. The context is simply about the love of money and possessions that people would choose that over a relationship with Christ.
Upon conception a body -soul union is formed
So u trump bashers make sure u return ur stimulus checks since he aint ur president
