Summer Plans: During the summer months, I am on my off-season schedule:
- For paid subscribers, I’ll combine weekly updates into a single report. These updates are less detailed compared to my winter report.
- Free subscribers will continue to receive occasional essays and posts during the summer months, but I won’t be posting as often.
- In the fall, I will return to sending out a full-length, free national version of Outbreak Outlook. Paid subscribers will receive region-specific editions with more local data.

Even the always-highest 0-4 age group is below 5%. The older age groups are all below 2%.
COVID-19
The summer wave of infections is here. National wastewater concentrations have risen sharply, matching last summer's peak levels.
