WastewaterSCAN shows a jump in #COVID19 that is almost entirely driven by the South. The Midwest and Northeast are fairly low but drifting upward. The Midwest is barely above it's LOWEST point in fall, while the Northeast is about 50% above it's fall low (while being almost 75% below its winter peak). The West seems to have plateaued (about 1/3 below where it was a year ago). But the South is still spiking around 50% higher than at any point in the past year. 1/2
