NGL, it wasn't much data anymore with how little monitoring is happening in florida, but it's still just about all that was reliable.

I'm not sure that's the case, as they are still doing summary reports of the collected data.

I do wonder if it's that so many counties have stopped participating that they were starting to look silly. Florida was down to 3 or 4 out 67 counties. Looking at all the state date was looking like a graph graveyard.

WastewaterSCAN, the partner of Verily, the company the CDC chose over Biobot for dirt cheap, has you covered. Their chart includes 13 utilities in Florida:

confusing chart

Their All Wastewater Sites chart includes data from 194 sites, 1 line per site:

even more confusing chart

Woo! We're up to 5 or 6 counties now! lmao, the bar has been raised! data-laughing Thanks for pointing me towards this. Should at least fulfill the role biobot's graphs were in giving me an idea of when we're in the middle of a statewide wave. Looks like things are starting to pick up again down in St Pete. doomer
