Samples are analyzed daily by
Biobot Analytics
, a wastewater epidemiology company. Sample results will generally be posted 2-3 working days after they are collected. Please refer to the
Mass DPH website
for information regarding current cases of COVID-19 in your community.
Biobot Data - samples collected through 4/6/2026
The graphs include error bars which represent the range of result variability caused by laboratory processing.
The graph with the green dots and error bars represent the North System
The graph with the orange dots and error bars represent the South System

The data tables include some variant screening results as provided by Biobot Analytics.
Additional information regarding the presence of SARS-CoV-2 genetic material in wastewater is available from
EPA
and
CDC
.
MWRA is now submitting samples for additional disease targets to the WastewaterSCAN program in addition to our regular testing with Biobot Analytics.
