AGP Executive Report

Last update: 7 hours ago

Health & Safety: Louisiana health officials are warning Gulf Coast beachgoers after a surge of Vibrio vulnificus “flesh-eating” bacteria—9 cases confirmed this year, all hospitalized, with 5 deaths. Officials say it thrives in warm, brackish coastal waters and infections often start when wounds are exposed; they urge anyone with redness, swelling, pain, warmth, or discoloration after seawater/brackish exposure to seek care fast. Tourism & Economy: Calcasieu Parish logged 7.5 million visitors in 2025, up 6.7% from 2023, with about $900 million in spending—supporting lodging, restaurants, recreation, and local businesses. Local Travel & Culture: Shreveport’s Loqual Elites is sending a team to Paris Fashion Week in October to handle hair and makeup for designer Tiffany S. Walker. Community & Events: New Orleans teens are debuting a youth-made music video, “Calling on the Lord,” at a Back-to-School Talent Artivism Showcase. Road Safety: A fatal two-vehicle crash on LA 63 in Livingston Parish killed a 40-year-old Holden man; toxicology is pending.
