Louisiana, we are in a very dangerous fourth surge of COVID-19. Cases continue to sharply rise & our hospitals are filling up. We have the power to end this needless suffering through vaccinations & through masking. Visit https://t.co/VYbLJeO7yD today. #lagov — PolitiTweet.org

I am pleading with everyone who is not vaccinated & is of age to make the decision today to get vaccinated. #lagov — PolitiTweet.org

Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov

For anyone asking the question when will this end, the answer is simple: when we decide to do what it takes to end it. The most impactful tools to make that happen are free & widely available- the three safe & effective vaccines. #lagov — PolitiTweet.org

Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov

Getting vaccinated is the best way to stay safe & healthy during this pandemic. It's the best way to put it behind us. In addition, I'm recommending that everyone, both vaccinated & unvaccinated, wear masks while indoors if six feet of distance can't be maintained. #lagov — PolitiTweet.org

Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov

To see this current rise in COVID-19 cases & hospitalizations is becoming increasingly scary. As I said recently, this surge is on us, & that means it is up to each of us to do our part to bring it to an end. It’s within our power. #lagov — PolitiTweet.org

Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov

We reported nearly 6,800 cases today in addition to the nearly 8,000 that were reported from the weekend. And today, there are close to 1,400 COVID patients hospitalized statewide – approximately 90 percent of whom are unvaccinated. 📄https://t.co/NmT5YLlHiC. #lagov https://t.co/WVXJBYe4cz — PolitiTweet.org
