Optional up to 2 points of extra credit: Here we see an estimation of daily infections by SARS-CoV-2 based on wastewater data collected during the COVID pandemic, tracking the repeated waves of infection we have experienced in the U.S. 1. How is it that we are able to measure SARS-CoV-2 in wastewater, i.e., what does this tell us about infections with this virus? What is it that we are measuring in this wastewater? 2. Make a prediction based on this graph and your understanding of the ongoing COVID pandemic. Where do you think cases will go in the future? Explain your thinking – why do you think cases will behave as you predict, and what variables will contribute to that trend.
