8. Data is aggregated across the sites to produce a national average wastewater Covid graph. To do this, firstly weekly averages are produced for flow-adjusted Covid in wastewater at each site to avoid giving disproportionate weight to data from more-frequently sampled sites. Then a weighted average of these weekly estimates is produced, weighting the contribution of each site by its population, and comparing this to the overall pattern of Scottish positive case rates.
