The Louisiana Department of Health has updated its website to reflect the latest number of positives and will continue to update its website at noon each day.
Case count
As of noon on March 25, the Department reported 407 additional cases of COVID-19, bringing the total to 1,795.
Hospitalization
Yesterday, 271 COVID-19 patients were hospitalized. Of those, 94 patients required ventilation.
Currently, 491 COVID-19 patients are hospitalized. Of those, 163 patients require ventilation.
Nursing homes
The Department of Health has identified COVID-19 clusters in six nursing homes in the state. A cluster is identified as two or more cases that appear to be connected. With the involvement of hospitals and multiple providers and the growth in cases of nursing home residents, the Department of Health will no longer be reporting where positive cases have been identified. The Department continues to work with nursing homes to minimize the spread of the illness and protect residents and staff.
Deaths
The Department now reports a total of 65 deaths. Below is a table of all reported deaths to date.
