Louisiana reported 1,023 additional cases today with 7.3% of tests (PCR only) positive.

Orleans Parish reported 64 additional cases today with 3.6% of tests positive.

May be more evidence of a plateau coming though still too early to tell for sure.
Decent evidence of a plateau developing a little more than a week ago in the cases by date of test data.

If we have a bad backlog right now that might be skewing things though.
Anyhow, the totality of data suggests we are likely at a plateau right now though obviously there's no guarantee that we don't either stay there or go down.
If you take out the backlogged cases from last Friday then the statewide graph looks like this.
Like I said, there's still the possibility of a backlog skewing the assessment so it adds some uncertainty about whether we're at a plateau. But there's ample evidence showing it's the plausible, maybe even likely, situation right now.

Louisiana reported 2,120 additional cases today with 6.4% of tests positive (PCR only).

Orleans Parish reported 134 additional cases today with 1.5% of tests positive.

Definite plateau in Orleans PCR testing, maybe starting to see it statewide but too early to say for sure.
Orleans Parish reported 2 new deaths after going 11 straight days without a new death.

Deaths statewide are starting to surge again.
The number of people in the hospital jumped by 40 today. Not good obviously but it's "only" up 20% week on week suggesting new hospitalizations are beginning to slow.

Seeing evidence of a plateau in Orleans Parish, not so much yet statewide. ImageImage
Also, I'm working of a hotspot, hence the pretty pictures.
