but that had federal or medical guidance come sooner, officials certainly would have considered canceling Mardi Gras

That sure sounds like passing the buck to me.

He apologized to the mayor of New Orleans but still blames it on federal officials ie Trump.

Really? What is this? Nungesser was saying there was only one known case in the whole state by the time of Mardi Gras, (but that had federal or medical guidance come sooner, officials certainly would have considered canceling Mardi Gras.)

Say what? The guy totally passed the buck. By "federal government" he really means President Dr. Trump.

Take note how easily lies roll off a politicians forked tongue.

Louisiana is good at blaming US presidents for local mistakes.

You work with what you know at the time.

No apologies necessary. A simple risk assessment done in his head sufficed. All the guidance was saying there was no concern.

Is he to know more than WHO/CDC experts? No.

This after the fact second quessing is getting kind of silly. If you know you have only one case of covid-19 in your entire state do you cancel Mardi Gras?

It’s highly contagious and even now I don’t think we know how it actually spread so fast. I don’t think we could have done a lot more to stop it.
