Rotavirus is spreading in California and across the U.S., wastewater and federal data show, with high levels of the diarrhea-causing infection reported in every region but the Midwest.
The Bay Area is a major hotspot, the 40-state-tracking WastewaterSCAN Dashboard shows. High levels have also been detected at wastewater treatment plants in New Jersey, Connecticut, and along the Northeast coast, with numbers steadily rising nationwide since mid-December, according to a U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention dashboard.
