Was COVID ever thought to be in the water supply?

It certainly showed up in the wastewater supply - that was one of the leading indicators of a COVID surge in the past. But the water coming out of the tap is pretty much ALWAYS treated, and when there’s a risk of contamination, we are placed under a boil water advisory, as Oakland and some surrounding neighborhoods experienced recently.
