Abstract:Wastewater based epidemiology (WBE) is a useful method to detect pathogen prevalence and may serve to effectively monitor diseases at a broad scale. WBE has been used throughout the COVID-19 pandemic to track localized and population-level disease burden through the quantification of SARS-CoV-2 RNA present in wastewater. Aside from case load estimation, WBE is being used to assay viral genomic diversity and the emergence of potential SARS-CoV-2 variants. Here, we present a study in which we sequenced RNA extra… Show more
