#Ottawa wastewater VOC update. Increased growth of S:K444T in the last weeks. Sequencing data from end of November suggests growth is due to BQ*. Samples from Monday indicate the mutation associated with these lineages now represents the majority of CoV-2 WW signal in the city.

Look at the lastest addition to the @OttawaHealth Respiratory Virus Snapshot, #RSV #Flu wastewater data! @RobDelatolla @PatrickAoust @rnaguru
Replying to @OttawaHealth
Our friends at @CHEO have seen significant volumes of other respiratory viruses, like flu & RSV. And those viruses do have an impact on our levels of risk as a community, including on our health system. So, we're adding flu & RSV wastewater data into our weekly snapshot. (4/9)
