COVID is on the rise this summer. Here's why and what else you should know
A high or very high level of COVID-19 virus is being detected in wastewater in almost every state, according to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. At least 10 other states have a high amount of COVID in the wastewater.
“We’re now relying on wastewater data, because people aren’t testing.

@Marc_T_Benedict I hear you. They may not want to test and they don't have to, but eventually EVERYONE has to go. So we get our information from waste water and IMHO it's more reliable anyway.

@nursefrombirth There's almost a conspiracy of silence about this. I had a bout with the bug at the beginning of June. My main coworker is currently at home with it. *Biden* recently had it. There isn't much talk about it, though. Fleeting mention in the news media. Public officials barely speaking of it at all. I'd far rather *hear* about it than have it.🙄
