was the government fuckup afterward that treated the city like a contagion zone and wouldn't allow people out or rescuers and supplies in for nearly five days.

This one is affecting more people over a much larger area but so far, it's 100% due to the storm and massive amounts of rain and not to HeckuvaJob Brownie and his nitwit boss Chertoff or any dimwitted successors. Once the clouds clear by the end of the week, things should start to recover.
