Latest Coronavirus Information

Monitoring the impact of COVID-19 and the effectiveness of prevention and control strategies remains a public health priority. With the COVID-19 PHE declaration ending, there have been changes in frequency, source, or availability of certain data. The current sources of COVID-19 tracking are the Louisiana Department of Health and the CDC.

Based on current COVID-19 trends, the federal Public Health Emergency (PHE) for COVID-19, declared under Section 319 of the Public Health Service (PHS) Act, expired at the end of the day on May 11, 2023. Although the PHE has ended, residents should prepare for the likelihood of future surges by continuing to assess risk levels for themselves and loved ones and relying on proven mitigation strategies: testing, masks, and staying up to date with COVID vaccinations. The City encourages all residents and visitors to get vaccinated if they have not already done so, including booster shots as they become available.
