AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

Gulf Coast Health Alert: Louisiana health officials say Vibrio vulnificus “flesh-eating” bacteria is surging, with 9 confirmed cases in 2026 and 5 deaths; all patients were hospitalized, and all infections were linked to wounds exposed to brackish or salt water—so beachgoers are being urged to seek care fast if a cut or scrape turns red, swollen, painful, warm, or discolored. Tourism Watch: Calcasieu Parish hit 7.5 million visitors in 2025, up 6.7% from 2023, with about $900 million in spending—good news for hotels, restaurants, attractions, and local businesses. Local Safety: Louisiana State Police are investigating a fatal two-vehicle crash on La. 63 in Livingston Parish that killed a 40-year-old Holden man; impairment is unknown and toxicology is pending. Travel & Culture: The LA Jazz Festival was canceled before it could start, with organizers citing unexpected public safety and permitting costs, and promising refunds and a 2027 return.
