Optiоnаl up tо 2 pоints of extrа credit: Here we see аn 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. Figure 1. Estimated daily COVID infections (y axis) vs. year (x axis) based on wastewater data. 1. How are we able to measure SARS-CoV-2 in wastewater, i.e., what are we measuring, and what does this tell us about about infections with this virus? 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.
