New Partnership Tracks COVID-19 Infections in Cambridge by Analyzing Wastewater
A new partnership with Biobot Analytics, Inc. in Cambridge offers a new approach to tracking COVID-19 outbreaks: analyzing wastewater. This week, for the first time, Cambridge will have access to local wastewater data that will serve as an early warning signal of increased COVID-19 infections in the city. This new monitoring tool will augment more traditional public health approaches for tracking and responding to disease outbreaks.

Join the Center for Families for our annual Summer Family Fun Day event! Activities are designed for Cambridge families with children birth - 8 years old.
