COVID, Flu & RSV in Colorado update, 11/4/26
Flu indicators continue to rise steadily, except wastewater.
COVID indicators flatten out.
RSV remains rare.
H5N1 is back in our cattle.
@_Levi_3@FireBobcat@DeepNotShallow If Kiros were running in the district, she would have a serious challenger.
This district was D+2 as recently as 2018. And th ere are some qualified republicans who could challenge someone. But the key is that its D +20 because Crow wins over a LOT of centrist republicans
@_Levi_3@FireBobcat@DeepNotShallow DeGette is left of Crow on some issues, but was right of Crow on Israel/Palestine.
I do not think Kiros is a gimme on in the 6th. She ran 6 points behind other democrats in her district.
Yes, Crow won with 65% this time, but w/o a serious challenger, because he is POPULAR. /1
I should clarify, i have only been measuring “high/moderate/low” since this summer. So most ever is most in the past months, not most since the start of the pandemic
The CDPHE viral respiratory dashboard will not be updated today due to the holiday,
But the wastewater is ready.
All but 3 utilities are now High or Moderate, the most ever. 15 of 22 are Rising.
The SARS-COV-2 median is now higher than any week since January 3, 2026.
@FireBobcat@DeepNotShallow (And i say this as a VERY progressive democrat).
I dont think Melat would have won the primary here. I dint think she would win the general either.
And Crow is nowhere near as problematic as Degette. He at least makes small nods to the far left rather than antagonizing us
@FireBobcat@DeepNotShallow Yeah. I dont know Pettersen as well, but she seems well suited to the district. The Denver exurbs only recently turned blue. My district was red until 2018.
Deep thinks every blue voter is AS reliably blue as him and he is just very wrong.
@DeepNotShallow There’s a reason Chad Clifford (a reserve police officer) won in HD37 over more progressive Ashish Vaidiya to replace *economist* Ruby Dickson.
And thats in one of the bluest parts of the district.
Dont waste your money and energy on Crow. There are better targets.
@DeepNotShallow I live in the district. He’s not a huge mismatch.
Is the district VERY blue? Yes. Is it also MUCH less progressive than Denver? Yes.
Crow is very popular here. There are a lot of veterans, a lot of moderate, wealthy people who lean blue but don’t espouse DSA ideals. /1
@AFelixMedia Im so glad Im not the only angry one about this. Why hand power to your political enemies?
Its ESPECIALLY baffling in the era of raw milk, bird flu, and MAHA generally.
@ParentMishmash Exactly. Every infant too young for the vaccine is also too young to mask according to the CDC.
But we CAN protect the others around them also at the hospital seeking health, not exposure to measles.
CDPHE and the Weld County Health Department have confirmed a case of measles in a Weld County resident and are notifying the public of areas for potential measles exposures. Learn more: https://t.co/iCDRFcbCpA
@OsoVerde9@KyleClark Ballots dropped off before the election day get processed but not reported before election day. That means they have a month to count like 75% of the ballots. Hope that helps.
Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza returns to Colorado Dairy Cattle after a 2 year break.
Risk to humans is considered low, but ongoing transition mammals increases the risk of development of strain that can sustain human to human transmission.

The wastewater picture looks similar to last week.
Metro CC (northwest Denver) and Silverthorne/Dillon are high. Most utilities are Moderate and Rising.
EV-68 remains really high.
