COVID-19: Viral prevalence up in Acadiana as cases per test double

Acadiana’s parishes saw new COVID-19 cases remain steady this week even as testing dropped 58% regionally, suggesting a higher prevalence of the virus in the community. This week the eight-parish region reported 380 new cases of COVID-19, or 54 per day on average, an increase of 4% from last week’s 364 new cases. But this week’s slight increase in cases came alongside a precipitous drop in testing for COVID-19 in the region that saw the number of cases reported per COVID-19 test double from last week.  Acadiana recorded 7,407 COVID-19 test results this week, more than 10,000 fewer tests than were reported in the region the week before for a 58% drop in daily COVID-19 testing rates locally. 

Where to get free Johnson & Johnson vaccine in Acadiana April 6-9

Louisiana s Department of Health is offering free single-dose COVID-19 vaccinations at events across Acadiana this week as all residents over 18 are eligible for the shots. LDH s Region 4 Office of Public Health, which covers Acadiana, is organizing the events in cities across the region, most of which require appointments that can be made online at OPH4.timetap.com or by phone at (337) 262-5311. The clinics will be offering the single-dose Johnson & Johnson vaccines that do not require a follow-up second-dose to be administered weeks later, unlike the Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna varieties. The Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine has been authorized for emergency use in people 18 and older by the federal Food and Drug Administration, and this week Louisiana is expecting to receive more than 67,700 doses of the Johnson & Johnson, according to data from the CDC.
