As SARSCoV2 cases have plunged to their lowest levels since July 2021 and testing falls off dramatically, the CDC’s surveillance effort is entering a new phase.
We are also working with academic partnerships that we are continuing to build. We are really excited about the Pathogen Genomics Centers of Excellence. I think it’s going to establish a new foundation for genomic epidemiology in the country.
But I think there are reasons for optimism. First, many state and local public health departments are able to do testing and sequencing in house. They are very closely engaged with their local communities, and they are able to access a lot of samples and understand what is circulating in the state and in the community.
Testing will continue to happen in most acute care settings. And we have a number of different unbiased systems like wastewater surveillance that aren’t going to be impacted by changes in testing.
