I'd be interested in the actual sources. I can't find a source in the million tweet thread (other than "I had the data"). I can't personally find any source/dataset myself that even slightly agrees with the heatmaps here. Their one actual source - Scottish wastewater viral load graphs, shows the seasonal behaviour and lack of synchronicity we'd typically expect.

Am I just being silly and missin' it? Because this is a fascinating phenomenon if actually true.

Dug into the replies there, they say it's all UKHSA rolling annual totals except for Lyme which is from the weekly lab-confirmed report UK does under the notifications of infectious disease system.

Cheers for that. Sadly, I can't find any info from UKHSA that backs it up either. Not sure how they're getting any rolling totals there except Measles and Strep A, which they only claim a .33 correlation for anyway. I tried really hard to find UKHSA Pertussis stats but the only ones I found were absolutely not a 0.96 correlation with the same period for Measles on the dashboard.

It genuinely could just be me being shit at finding this stuff, but I still can't correlate.

HumuongousChungus has your sources, but, I mean, it's expected. Mass immune dysregulation has been steady in the top 5 things keeping me up at night. For years doomer
