Description
COVID is spiking and schools are reopening, but most aren't changing their plans.
State Health Officer, Dr. Joseph Kanter, said Louisiana is experiencing its eighth COVID-19 surge.
Data from the Louisiana Dept. of Health shows a spike in cases and hospitalizations between late May to early August. Kanter said those numbers are likely under reported.
“The formal numbers actually undercount the number of cases out there right now, but you don’t need to count every rain drop to know it’s raining," Kanter said.
