Map of the United States titled “COVID-19 Heat Map, Based on CDC Wastewater Data and Levels (U.S.)” from the Pandemic Mitigation Collaborative (PMC), dated March 9, 2026. States are color-coded by transmission level using CDC wastewater data: very high (dark red), high (red), moderate (orange), low (yellow), very low (light yellow), and limited data (striped). Several Midwest and Southern states—such as Minnesota, Illinois, Alabama, and Mississippi—are shown at high levels, while much of the West and parts of the Southeast show low or very low levels. A note at the bottom states that transmission is subsiding at the end of the 12th wave and no state is currently in the “Very High” category.

Several states—including Alabama, Delaware, Illinois, Maine, Minnesota, and Mississippi—are marked “High,” with infection estimates around 1 in 33 to 1 in 38 people. Many other states are listed as moderate or low, while some—such as California, Florida, Hawaii, Idaho, and the District of Columbia—are categorized as very low.
