Shit's fucked.
Louisiana is #2 per capita, behind New York, for coronavirus cases
New Orleans has the world's fastest rate of growth for new coronavirus cases
forbes.com
27.5% of those diagnosed are currently hospitalized
9.1% of those diagnosed are currently on ventilators
3.62% have died
ZERO thus far have fully recovered
Not the Cajun food, nooooo
noooo, not the krauterinos
Still using firefighters as EMS every time someone has the sniffles, no PPE. Will the city burn before Covid-19 kills it?
>Live in Metairie
>Have to go back Uptown tomorrow for a few hours of work
I won't be too near other people but fuck me sideways, now even if I don't get it I'm going to be terrified the next few days waiting for the symptoms to potentially flare up.
>Covid-19
There are literally at least 30 better names we've come up with for the Shanghai Shivers than fucking Covid-19.
I got out of NOLA last week
Are people in Metry actually staying home? I'm couped up inside and not about to drive out there and find out. I'm also off social media these days, so I'm in a little bubble.
too late. you already caught it and just brought our strain with you to infect new people.
Yeah Bossierfag here, things in this State got suddenly bad. The shortages have been terrible, whole grocery stores have like 50% of their shelves empty.
Me and my family yes for the most part. Lots of fucking retards the last few days going out on jogs and walking their puppers and shit; they seem to think that if you're walking instead of taking your car somewhere that's somehow okay.
On Sunday we went all the way to the north shore just to get groceries in somewhere we thought would be less infected.
And the tr1ps confirm it.
>going out on jogs and walking their puppers and shit
Walking your dog can be necessary. I don't see a problem venturing outside as long as you avoid other people and don't stray too far. The problem I've seen is these retards take the opportunity to congregate in the street and talk for a half hour because they're over-socialized and can't even keep to themselves, or even just their family, for a single day.
I remember when I was younger and still a naive leftist, I'd tell people where I was from, and they'd all be like "cool, that's awesome, New Orleans is so unique!, blah blah faggoty reddit speak."
Now people I talk to online say
>lmao niggers
>faggots and niggers
>sanctuary city, you deserve it
>lol niggers, kys
>katrina, haha fuck you
Metryfag here, I've seen people up and down Metairie Road congregating and selling goods. Over all yes, there's been a huge spike in people walkin their doggos and just playing in the yard, talking to neighbors and whatnot. Boomer dad says this is what it looked like back when he was my age. Cabin fever is starting to set in here and downtown is fucking dead besides the niggers that live there.
I haven't left the house at all
Bump. is it still full of niggers? or did Katrina take care of that?
>downtown metry
lol
Bruh, you are a suburb.
yes. all of them are gone. New Orleans is the white ethnostate.
More info op, you chatty cathy's
Louisianafag here, why is this happening so bad to my State?
I think Cortrina is going to fuck us hard.
Because of mother fucking mardi gras and tourists bringing it in and infecting all of us. Also, if you in western LA, you have Texas to thank for spreading that shit from Dallas and Houston.
How great would that be holy shit. Even Metairie is getting fucked hard now.
I remember when Metairie was 90% white, and everyone made fun of Kenner. I don't think making fun of Kenner hasn't changed, but Metairie is like 2/3 white, tops, and that's only because even the hispanics don't want to have to live with the niggers either so they have colonlized Jefferson Parish.
Autistic wording, I meant downtown NOLA
The Health Department said it wasn't related to Mardi Gras though, take it with a grain of salt but I don't think that's what happened exactly. New Orleans does have a lot of Chinese people though.
don't think has*
Naw dude, they're Vietnamese.
>mfw I work at a manufacturing plant in NELA and am designated as an essential worker
Bastards, my dad doesn't have the best immune system and I don't know what I'd do if I accidentally gave it to him. Gotta get paid to support the family though
I'll just leave this here.

> It first struck me how different it was when I saw my first coronavirus patient go bad. I was like, Holy shit, this is not the flu. Watching this relatively young guy, gasping for air, pink frothy secretions coming out of his tube and out of his mouth. The ventilator should have been doing the work of breathing but he was still gasping for air, moving his mouth, moving his body, struggling. We had to restrain him. With all the coronavirus patients, we’ve had to restrain them. They really hyperventilate, really struggle to breathe. When you’re in that mindstate of struggling to breathe and delirious with fever, you don’t know when someone is trying to help you, so you’ll try to rip the breathing tube out because you feel it is choking you, but you are drowning."
>Before this, we were all joking. It’s grim humor. If you are exposed to the virus and test positive and go on quarantine, you get paid. We were all joking: I want to get the coronavirus because then I get a paid vacation from work. And once I saw these patients with it, I was like, Holy shit, I do not want to catch this and I don’t want anyone I know to catch this."
>I worked a long stretch of days last week, and I watched it go from this novelty to a serious issue. We had one or two patients at our hospital, and then five to 10 patients, and then 20 patients. Every day, the intensity kept ratcheting up. More patients, and the patients themselves are starting to get sicker and sicker. When it first started, we all had tons of equipment, tons of supplies, and as we started getting more patients, we started to run out. They had to ration supplies. At first we were trying to use one mask per patient. Then it was just: You get one mask for positive patients, another mask for everyone else. And now it’s just: You get one mask.
>I don't know what I'd do
Stop using memeflags and repent for your homosexuality. It's a start. Maybe God will have mercy on him for siring a faggot.
Most everywhere else that wording works. In Louisiana, people from little towns and suburbs outside of cities pretend they aren't from X metro area. They do the same right across the border in Texas. Ask someone from Orange what there is to do in Beaumont, and they'll lecture you that they aren't from Beaumont before proceeding to tell you everything to do in Beaumont, because they're fucking from a suburb of Beaumont.
Take Lafayette. I was talking to some fucker from Scott. I was like, aw cool, I love Lafayette.
>I'm not fucking from Lafayette
Fuck you nigger; you are from Lafayette.
this but unironically
N.O. is more like the thrid world country class of USA.Bunch of jobless struggling with hurricans and high violence rates...
Lets do like every other third world countries: nothing
NOLA has both. I know they're tons of Vietnamese in this State. But over the past decade we've gotten a good bit of Chinese people too, mainly coming in through the schools.
I'm just wondering if one of them may have invited an infected relative over or something.
Yeah it's kind of silly how people here do that. They'll get defensive about it. Meanwhile everyone in Bossier will just say "I'm from Shreveport" so we don't have to explain that Bossier is right across the river from it and we're practically the same city.
I guess I consider the Vietnamese local at this point. They've assimilated pretty well. They're all Catholic, conservative (because they escaped communism) and they make the best French bread. They're like the Cubans in Florida.
Fuck you memeflag.
>sperging out about a fucking airport power hiccup
This senile black dude is unironically cooler than this fedora. That's like if I sperged out about Texas because I had a flight delayed there once.
My parents now live on the other side of the state in a suburb of Lake Charles. People there are just like in Lafayette and Beaumont where they are all from their unincorporated, census-designated area just outside of the city rather than from the city.
I think we should annex Beaumont. It is rightful LA clay whether those Texans like it or not.
I’ve got family there. So far they don’t know anyone that has it.
Yeah I consider them local too, they fit right into the Cajun culture.
As long as Corona-chan fucks off and leaves Lockport, Raceland & Houma alone.
Spent a great deal of the '90s in Coon-Ass country, "whites only" still practiced in the '90s.
Mein Gott but I loved that place.
Best times ever man.
kek, the Vietnamese in my area (Alexandria metro) live as if they never left Saigon, total bugmen
Also lots of Buddha necklace shit, so maybe you have a different stock of Viets idk
I like how honest and on top of it our state is with reporting all the details about corona (from the limited and mostly private testing being done), but I hate how they decided to manipulate numbers to put us behind Italy. The numbers they report at noon, you better believe are from the previous day. They stopped reporting information twice a day (most importantly, at the end of day) Sunday morning and never updated the rest of Sunday. They tried to put us a day behind so the trajectory would be behind despite having a population of 4 million whereas Italy is like 60 million.
We're fucked. They seemingly want to show how fucked we are, yet keep the population optimistic by manipulating numbers to put us a day behind. I have no idea what they hope to accomplish. I honestly don't think they do either.
Edwards is at least straight-forward about shit. I appreciate that. I don't think he gives a fuck about politics. He's already won his second term.
>they fit right into the Cajun culture.
I take it you are not from here.
kek
Why the fuck did they switch from twice a day to once a day anyway? The bigger jumps you get from once a day will just spook people.
Quick question to all of Louisiana,
Are Gibaud jeans still a thing or do I need to wake up from 1989?
No go back to sleep my boy, I'll wake you up when we get to Blue Bayou lil buddy
They must be of a different stock than the ones in the New Orleans metro. Do you remember the ONE time a Republican congressman got elected to represent New Orleans? The gerrymandered, safe black district of New Orleans? He was Vietnamese, and it was because it was a run-off election, and none of the niggers came out to vote. He slipped in for one term. He tried to pivot to the center hoping maybe they'd vote for him come the next election. lol, it didn't happen; by a landslide it didn't happen.
It was to put us one day behind. The people in charge of updating this shit are autistic about it and aren't thinking about what the average person will think. Over and over it was, we're on the same trajectory as Italy. They made a move to put us a day behind Italy, as if that actually matters.
AWW SHIT POPEYE, THAT YOU
SUP WESTBANK

check this nigger out. seriously. this dude probably has the best weed.
Thanks fren.
Don't forget to stop off at Frostop in Raceland for hot dogs w/chili, cheeseburgers, fries & of course, root beer in the frosted mug.
People were wearing them until the late 90s. If you go to rural, bumfuck nowhere parishes like Beauregard, people are still wearing Jncos. I don't even know where the fuck you find Jncos. Evidently Beauregard Parish knows.
That shit will be passed down like a relic
>Siddown boi, these here jeens was given ta me by my daddy like his daddy 'fore him, wear 'em wi' praide ma boi
My best friend in high school had moved up here to TN from Raceland/Lockport.
I fell in absolute love w/his hot black-haired, blue-eyed cousin w/4 names, Catholic af.
He brought me down to Houma to meet her family in 1989, I was 19. Her family was blue-collar Coon-Ass, white, French Catholic, lived in a literal Shotgun house & they took my blond/green-eyed hillbilly ass in like family.
Remember the Gibaud Jeans billboards everywhere. That place was like a foreign country to me. Never had a bad time there. Southern Heaven.
noooo not the hecking non-whiterinos in the shitholearino that is the american south
WE GOTTA FLATTEN THE CURVE BRO
LE STAY INSIDE, SAVE LIVES XxDXDxD
WE CANT LET THE OVERWEIGHT, OLD NIGGERS DIE FROM THE FLU
>THE AMERICAN SOUTH IS JUST NIGGERS AND NOTHING BUT NIGGERS NO WHITE PEOPLE LIVE THERE
Why does Yas Forums think this?
