2026 Summer Update

Welcome, Cave Junction! Oregon's wastewater surveillance network now includes about 40 participating utilities, tracking COVID-19, Influenza A/B, RSV, measles, and avian influenza weekly (CDC dashboard | OHA dashboard).

 

New Publication. Our targeted wastewater surveillance during the World Athletics Championships was recently published, detecting possible introductions of influenza A and SARS-CoV-2 variants during the event — a strong demonstration of wastewater surveillance's value at large international gatherings.

Supplies & Postage. We're currently sending 12 weeks of supplies and postage every 3–4 weeks. If your utility is overstocked or running low, please let us know.

Free WEF Training. WEF is offering "Wastewater Surveillance 101", a foundational course on the field, key players, and the utility professional's role.

The following 50 Utilities have collectively provided over 25,000 samples since September of 2020
