Fun with MA COVID-19 Reporting 30-Jun-2022 Greater-Greater Somerville Edition

Just a friendly reminder that I'm using state numbers for total cases in reporting from each week but using a calculation that is a better approximation of the cases we've seen every 2 weeks by taking the totals from the report 2 weeks ago and comparing to the report of the week.  For an explanation of why this is more appropriate, read over my post about it: https://funwithmacovid-19reporting.blogspot.com/2020/10/why-weekly-community-numbers-reported.html

Recognizing that the detailed view isn't for everybody, I'm boiling it down to the highs/lows for 2021 and providing only this year's detailed information here.  The highs and lows of 2021 are still important because it gives us perspective both on the super-high from this winter as well as the not-so-great low from a few weeks ago.  This is obviously an over-simplification but might be easier to read than the full details.  The detailed week-by-week information going back further can be found at the bottom of this post.

Number of cities/towns with each designation with my calculation:
  • Blue - 19 (2 fewer than last week) (Less than 1.5 cases per 100,000 people per day; this is the CDC's "Low Transmission" category)
  • Green - 5 (3 more than last week) (Greater than 1.5 and less than 4 cases per 100,000 people per day; this roughly overlaps with the CDC's "Moderate Transmission" which is 1.5 to 7.1)
  • Yellow - 19 (1 fewer than last week) (Greater than or equal to 4 and less than 8 cases per 100,000 people per day; note that 7.1 to14.2 is the CDC's range for "Substantial Transmission")
  • Orange - 116 (21 more than last week) (Greater than or equal to 8 and less than 16 cases per 100,000 people per day)
  • Red - 144 (9 fewer than last week) (Greater than or equal to 16 and less than 24 cases per 100,000 people per day; note: 14.2 or higher is what the CDC considers "High Transmission" which is their highest category of spread so their highest category starts slightly below Red) 
  • Maroon - 42 (13 fewer than last week) (Greater than or equal to 24 and less than 40 cases per 100,000 people per day)
  • Purple - 6 (same as last week) (Greater than or equal to 40 and less than 64 cases per 100,000 people per day)
  • Black - 2 (1 more than last week)(Greater than or equal to 64 and less than 100 cases per 100,000 people per day)
  • Black w/Italic Text - 0 (same as last week)(Greater than or equal to 100 and less than 200 cases per 100,000 people per day)
  • Black w/Underlined Bold Italics - 0 (same as last week) (Greater than or equal to 200 and less than 300 cases per 100,000 people per day)
  • Red Text w/Bold on Black - 0 (same as  last week) (Greater than or equal to 300 and less than 400 cases per 100,000 people per day)
  • Red Text w/Bold Italics on black - 0 (same as  last week) (Greater than or equal to 400 and less than 500 cases per 100,000 people per day)
  • Red Text w/Underlined Bold Italics on black - 0 (same as last week) (Greater than or equal to 500 cases per 100,000 people per day)
Summary: Well... it was nice to be reducing spread for while it lasted... of the locales I track, 3 increased spread and only Springfield really reduced spread substantially.

Have a city/town you'd like me to keep track of?  Let me know and I'll get started.

Detailed View:

Information closest to the city/town name is the most recent information and spans backward in time, one week's report at a time, so that a comparison can be drawn of how we went from doing ok in the summer of 2020, to doing really badly over the winter, to doing really well in the spring of 2021, and then how we've done since.  We were able to get the spread down to "Low transmission" briefly in many areas while still in phase 3 of our re-opening plan so beating COVID-19 is entirely possible, we just have to try as a wider community to get there.

MA Wastewater Tracking (23-Jan-2024 data)

Image
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.

Fun with MA COVID-19 Reporting 02-Nov-2020 Edition - NEW LAYOUT IN THE REPORT!

THERE'S A NEW REPORT LAYOUT! (there will be a separate post about current counts/prediction follow up) It's always interesting to see a new layout because it gives insight into what the state's priorities and story-telling is.  Today's layout shows that they continue to be either sloppy with their design OR they want to try to confuse people by putting deaths and turn-around time for test results under the same heading line, similar to how all testing/cases are under one and how all information on hospitalizations are under a second line. We now have an "average age of deaths"... but we don't have which average it is, whether it's mean, median, mode, or whether it's overall or for the newly reported or the last 7 days or last 14 days or any kind of detail around it.... same with the new "average age of cases that were hospitalized". They're no longer showing the percent of individuals tested testing positive and only showing the perce...

Switching to Wastewater Monitoring Only

Case counts were already somewhat misleading so, if people were actually paying attention to the wastewater and had a target and/or threshold for concern, that would actually be potentially a more reasonable thing to monitor... with that in mind, let's look at some time points to try to find some measures to consider.  Let's start with establishing a few thresholds.   Early on in the pandemic, we said 8 cases per 100,000 people per day was the highest threshold of concern (ie, that was the introduction to the highest risk-rating we had).  Later, we relaxed this a bit because we realized that this would keep us on high alert and never allow us to go back to normal ... sort of like saying that everybody is smoking so the threshold that for risking cancer shouldn't be smoking 3 cigarettes a day but instead should be a pack a day.  Based on this relaxing of concern, let's go ahead and add in 16 cases per 100,000 people per day as a threshold to monitor for, just as ...
