Many people don't understand what a high level of community spread means, so it's very helpful to translate wastewater data into estimated infections like this. 1 in 55 works out to roughly 2-4 people with an active COVID infection in every crowded subway car. Wear a mask.

Thank you, this is helpful. Our journalism co-op is still doing regular covid alerts. Is there somewhere we can find the method for translating wastewater levels into estimated infections?

Thank u for translating this. I got the gist that Covid is rising, but it’s certainly nice to be able to understand the only data that’s available these days. Thk u. Extremely helpful.

Thank you. That puts it in real terms. Will share with my teen.

Isn't covid just like the common cold these days?

Still masking.

Thank you for sharing the data and translating. Do you have numbers on hospitalization rates as well, or know where to find them?

Wow that happened fast! It was low 3 weeks ago. Not that this will change anyone’s behavior. I think there’s maskers and not maskers at this point. I don’t know any conditional maskers.
