I need to know for a paper I'm writing, and not just Louisiana but overall.

You may be able to get the official government figures on the FEMA or a New Orleans web site. The actual deaths are higher, but we'll never know how much higher since bodies were not collected in an orderly fashion and there were some attempts by government to lower the numbers (two mortuary contractors quit over it).

The number of deaths in Louisiana blamed on Hurricane Katrina has risen to 799, the state's Department of Health and Hospitals said Wednesday, bringing the overall death toll to 1,033.

Suppose someone tells you, what would you do for the survivers?
