Avoyelles Parish Monday COVID update: 10 tests, one new case
Mon, 10/26/2020 - 1:22pm
Avoyelles was once again almost a "no show" for the state health department's COVID update. The parish had only 10 test results in the Monday report, with one new case of COVID-19. If the 10 percent positive rate were reflected in a report with 100 tests or 1,000 tests, there would be cause for concern.
In the Monday-to-Monday review of the parish's fight against COVID, there were 41 new cases out of 1,014 test results, for a 4 percent positive rate.
Avoyelles' pandemic totals as of Monday were 1,708 cases, 62 deaths and 28,032 tests. The state's totals were 180,069 cases, 5,648 deaths and almost 2.7 million tests.
