#USA, #Wastewater Data for Avian #Influenza #H5 (US CDC, Sept. 11 '26), https://etidiohnew.blogspot.com/2026/09/usa-wastewater-data-for-avian-influenza_0708735375.html

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.

Last week I highlighted really terrible SARS-CoV2 concentration numbers from the West Point (WSPT) sewage treatment plant's 7 day running average for 8/25, but said, maybe this is a crazy outlier, let's see next week's numbers. Well, they're in, and the updated numbers are quite, quite bad. These calculations of the 7DRA were done on 8/30 and 9/1, and they are by far the worst numbers we've seen in a year (which is as far back as the dataset goes). :( :( :(

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 https://doh.wa.gov/data-and-statistical-reports/diseases-and-chronic-conditions/communicable-disease-surveillance-data/respiratory-illness-data-dashboard#WasteWater. 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

[I still remember a talk that @RelaenaSindelar gave about pharmaceuticals in the waste stream; one of her examples was Sequim, WA - in the banana belt - with retirement communities' flushed medications’ and the downstream/coastal effects - NOT the Grand Canyon! :( ]

EU’s wastewater directive imposes unsustainable costs, warn Czech pharma stakeholders https://www.euractiv.com/section/health-consumers/news/eus-wastewater-directive-imposes-unsustainable-costs-warn-czech-pharma-stakeholders/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon #Czechia #EUPharmaPackage #genericdrugs #wastewater

#ManMade #AlgaeBlooms called #RedTides are killing off #MarineLife and finally #California #wastewater districts are working together to clean & limit #fertilizing #Phosphorus #Nitrogen and #Nutrient rich sludge releases into the region's regulatory vacuum and sewer they call #SanFrancisco Bay. This month #Marin, #Alameda and #Berkeley Marina have all had #HarmfulAlgaeBlooms or #HAB occurrences monitored by #SanFranciscoBay Regional #WaterQuality Control Board and other agencies who are all largely powerless to stop the disgusting #discharges causing the #toxic conditions.
