As of May 11, 2023, COVID-19 Community Levels (CCLs) and COVID-19 Community Transmission Levels are no longer calculatable. The associated visualizations have been removed from COVID Data Tracker. The “COVID-19 Integrated County View” tab has been renamed “COVID-19 Vaccinations by County.”
The NYS Wastewater Surveillance Network is a collaboration between Syracuse University, SUNY-ESF, University at Buffalo - SUNY, Stony Brook University, Upstate Medical University, NYS Department of Health, and NYS Department of Environmental Conservation. This website is where all the wastewater surveillance data collected by participating counties is reported. You can view data in the interactive map and graphs below for all current and past participants.

As of May 11, genomic surveillance data will be reported biweekly, based on the availability of positive test specimens. You can find archived genomic surveillance data at data.cdc.gov. The CDC provides updated variant proportions for weighted estimates and Nowcast estimates every other week on Friday.
CDC provides estimates of variant proportions in two ways: weighted estimates and Nowcast estimates.
Weighted estimates (provided for all weeks except the most recent three weeks) are variant proportions that are based on empirical (observed) genomic sequencing data. These estimates are not available for the most recent weeks because of the time it takes to generate the unweighted data, including sample collection, specimen treatment, shipping, analysis, and upload into public databases.
Nowcast estimates (provided for the most recent three weeks when the "Nowcast on" option is selected below) are model-based projections of variant proportions for the most recent weeks to enable timely public health action. CDC uses the Nowcast to forecast variant proportions before the weighted estimates are available for a given week.

Lineages that are dominant at a sampling site have the highest prevalence in that sample and represent the majority of genetic material detected.
