- jjeaff 2y agothe raw data appears to agree that Louisiana is surging in cases. What is the issue? Just that they have assigned a cause when it may actually just be correlation?
- GeekyBear 2y agoIf Louisiana were the only state experiencing a spike in cases, there would at least be cause to speculate. Ars doesn't even have that excuse. America has already experienced too large a decrease in trust towards public health pronouncements. Continuing to politicize public health reporting is unacceptable.
