Middlesex MA Wastewater Tracking (23-Dec-2023 reported data; collected during the week of 18-Dec-2023)

Most recent Middlesex, MA covid tracking shows just over 2,000 copies per mL, suggesting we were seeing roughly 270 cases per 100,000 people per day (friendly reminder that the red flag for us was initially set to 8 cases per 100,000 people per day, then relaxed to 16, and then to 25 as we tried to avoid closing all schools all the time... so we're over 10 times the most relaxed threshold).

See that little uptick at the end of each graph? This didn't happen in 2022 but did in 2023. We understood the goal in 2022 (to some degree) but since ... is there some portion of the population who says "covid spread must be down so let's go nuts"? I suspect this is partially colleges reconvening their students on campuses where in 2022 they were still trying to get their students to maintain some precautions and they haven't been since... but I also don't think this is just college campuses.

Middlesex MA Wastewater Tracking (18-Dec-2023 data)

Not that it wasn't already apparent but covid spread is definitely on the rise in MA, and in particular in Middlesex country. The latest update from BioBot is that Middlesex had 1,636 copies per mL (roughly equivalent to 218 cases per day per 100,000 people, where 8 cases per day per 100,000 people was the original highest threshold, which was later relaxed to 16 to make doing nothing seem more reasonable). Nationwide spread hasn't been at 1,636 since the start of 2022 (no, not since last winter's wave, since the winter wave before that) Admittedly, MA saw that rate at its crest in the winter of 2022-2023 but limited to Dec 23-Jan 8. https://biobotstg.wpengine.com/data/covid-19#county-25017
