Despite claiming they report cumulative data, Louisiana reports some facilities as "Closed" instead of providing data on the facility sheet. As a result, the weekly total dropped on October 15, 2020. Interpret this data with caution.

When reports no data, several days of data, or unusual data (such as decreases in values that should increase), our volunteers note it here on the date the anomaly occurred. We also note here changes in our own methodology that affect the data.
