Misrepresentation: Infection numbers cannot be determined from wastewater. NWSS wastewater data are normalized to a rolling 1-yr baseline, not proportional to infection rates. https://www.cdc.gov/nwss/about-data.html#anchor_53209 CDC: "estimates of community infection based on wastewater measurements should not be used". https://archive.cdc.gov/www_cdc_gov/nwss/reporting.html

Original Tweet

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1842315256141435302

Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
