Governor John Bel Edwards stated that New Orleans is going to be out of ventilators by 2nd April because almost 80% of ICU patients are breathing on machines. He also said that by April 7, there will be a shortage of beds also. The healthcare workers are using recycled protective masks. They don’t have essential gear for protecting themselves while taking care of COVID-19 patients. These things will create a hugely problematic situation in New Orleans. The Government needs to resolve it as soon as possible before the pandemic hits the city.
