    Court case shows how cocaine traffickers got creative during N.L.'s #COVID19 restrictions
    A central #Newfoundland man has been hit with a 39-month sentence for his role in a creative cocaine trafficking scheme that saw kilograms of cocaine hidden so well inside a truck that investigators couldn't find it.

  21. Hi, these are the weekly #washingtonstate #kingcounty (that is, #seattle and environs) #COVID #COVID19 #wastewater toots.

    A quick reminder that this King County respiratory disease data comes from Washington State, not the federal government.

    The West Point (WSPT) sewage treatment plant's 7 day running average is, well, sucky. The last 7DRA calculation was on 8/25. The only thing I can say about this is that this running average was just bouncing around, but then completely busted out in the two days from 8/23 to 8/25. It will be good to get some more data points next week to tell us if this is some super crazy outlier or not.

    Also, you might notice the banner above the graph that says: "The CDC updated how it measures wastewater viral activity level (WVAL) in August 2026. Our dashboard currently uses the previous method while we work to incorporate these new updates." WVALs are the CDC categories used to describe very high/high/moderate/low/very low virus detection levels, and they get a fair amount of criticism because the category recalculations result in changing baselines that obscure year-over-year trends. I believe these WVAL categories get used in the state's "Statewide view" tab, so the CDC changes will affect that. By contrast, the facility-level graphs that I post each week are linearly-scaled graphs of seven day running averages of detected concentration levels. Whatever happens with the WVAL category definitions, it won't affect this facility-level reporting.

    WSPT is one of three King County(-ish) sewersheds in this dataset. You can find overviews, individual sewershed results, and a breakdown of variants for the state wastewater surveillance program, along with other metrics like case counts and hospitalizations for Covid-19 and other respiratory illnesses, at doh.wa.gov/data-and-statistica. If you go to the page and click "learn more" in the statewide view tab, you can find out lots of details about how these data are calculated and how to interpret them. The dashboard gets updated every Wednesday (generally). The Department of Health is here on the fediweb, at @WADeptHealth

  27. Note the term "epidemic" (in the screenshot in previous post of 🧵) –

    Not "endemic," like adenovirus, a common cold virus, though the powers-that-be often treat like a common cold.

    "Epidemic" is defined by as an "unexpected increase in the number of disease cases in a specific geographical area."

    Scientists have thought for a while that will eventually become endemic in the population.
