Littleton health data: wastewater low, no positive mosquito tests; state data anomaly noted
Summary
Board reported wastewater indicators remain very low, no mosquitoes have tested positive for EEE or West Nile in Littleton, and staff will investigate a state-data anomaly showing a case dated July 11 on the public feed.
The Littleton Board of Health received a brief infectious-disease update on June 24: wastewater surveillance remains at very low levels and no local mosquitoes have tested positive for eastern equine encephalitis (EEE) or West Nile virus.
"Wastewater levels continue to be like super super low," Dr. Matt Wson reported, and he noted the state data feed appears to include a week of July 11 that creates a spurious case entry; staff will investigate the timing anomaly. Board members said there are currently no known risks to the community and asked that operational notes about recent vaccination clinics be shared with the incoming health director so momentum is not lost.
The board closed the item with no new public-health actions recommended; staff will continue routine surveillance and report any changes.
