We evaluated the association between wastewater concentration and weekly percent positivity of patient testing for SARS-CoV-2, influenza, and respiratory syncytial virus in Oregon, USA. We found strong, positive correlations for SARS-CoV-2 (ρ = 0.84, p<0.001), influenza (ρ = 0.73, p<0.001) and respiratory syncytial virus (ρ = 0.69, p<0.001).
