There is a sad situation going on in New Orleans right now.

Total fatalities in the metro area now total 94.... that's third behind New York City (496) and Seattle (118), but on a per capita basis, New Orleans is by far the hardest hit major metro in the United States.

Deaths from COVID-19 per 1 Million People:

74.0- New Orleans
30.0- Seattle
24.8- New York
12.7- Detroit

Some of the above figures have not been updated today, but as it stands right now, the number of fatalities per capita in New Orleans is 3x worse than in New York.

Please folks take this seriously. I'm afraid we're just getting started and its already a very bleak situation in New Orleans.

The problem is very simple, selfesh people, look at how many people are playing Golf, how many people are walking jogging in Audubon and City parks.

N. O. people are very friendly but foolish one of the reasons we are last on most category listed in the Country.
