Actually Louisiana is one of the worst. So far we have 240 cases and 5 deaths.

Florida is going to be such a shite show. In-laws snowbird in Palm Beach, and all these 70+ year olds at their condo complex are still just getting together and playing bunko and shite like nothing is going on.

Not to be morbid but there is a reason its called "Death's Waiting Room." I could see the Florida hospitals being overwhelmed quickly.
Arkansas and Mississippi will be interesting cases. The populations are small and spread out but our medical infrastructure is not even close to handling a major outbreak in either state.

Mississippi has the potential to be awful.
Our governor is a worthless piece of shite who didn't bother taking any sort of action until after MS had already gotten hit.
Would have been nice to get in front of it and take advantage of the fact that Mississippi got a slow start, for once. Looking at the way its tracking, we are in the same boat as everyone else and will probably need fed assistance in standing up medical care.

That is my concern for both states. Let us face facts... Eastern Arkansas and Northern Mississippi are utterly dependent on Memphis for medical care. If Memphis gets overwhelmed by the virus and all its beds are taken people are screwed.
Not just from the virus. I mentioned a week or so ago that when Memphis had a bad flu outbreak years ago it meant my nephew couldn't get a Memphis hospital bed when he started having heart problems. It took over a week to get him in a Memphis hospital and by then it was too late. He died the day after he got in.
If Memphis goes down every serious health condition could prove fatal. That is the secret toll this could take and why we have to do whatever we can to keep the hospitals from filling up.

That's awful, man. Hopefully places prepare accordingly to avoid that.
