Louisana Gov. John Bel Edwards said his state has the fastest CCP virus growth rate in the world.
Within a week, Louisiana has gone from having fewer than 100 cases to over 800 as of Sunday evening, according to Edwards. He provided a graph that shows the state on a steep upward trajectory similar to Italy, which has reported thousands of deaths and tens of thousands of cases, and Spain, which has reported a surge in patients and deaths the past week, according to Fox2Now.
