Last week, #COVID19 in US Midwest wastewater had exploded. With this weeks' Biobot update, two things jump out:

1. COVID is up almost equally across all US regions. COVID has risen 233% in two months. It's at its highest since February, and the trend is still upward.

2. While the Midwest data has shown a decline from the week prior, I suspect that is a data or reporting artifact given the overall trend across all regions. We'll likely see the Midwest continue to rise.

The CDC's data on #COVID19 in wastewater is more complete than Biobot's, but whereas Biobot shows overall level, the CDC's data shows the ratio of testing sites increasing or declining. The CDC data demonstrates the number of sites with COVID increases has steadily increased for almost three months, and that growth is now greater than at any point since last year.
