SARS-CoV-2 RNA in Wastewater Settled Solids Is Associated with COVID-19 Cases in a Large Urban Sewershed

Katherine E. Graham et al.

Summary: The study indicates that measuring SARS-CoV-2 RNA concentrations in settled solids may be a more sensitive approach than measuring SARS-CoV-2 in influent, providing important information for public health response to viral diseases like COVID-19.

Early warning of COVID-19 via wastewater-based epidemiology: potential and bottlenecks

Yifan Zhu et al.

Summary: Wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) is an important tool in the early warning system for COVID-19 pandemic, with the shedding dynamics of infected individuals and back-calculation of observed viral load being major bottlenecks. Optimal sampling strategy is crucial for the success of WBE projects.

Unravelling the early warning capability of wastewater surveillance for COVID-19: A temporal study on SARS-CoV-2 RNA detection and need for the escalation

Manish Kumar et al.

Summary: Wastewater-based Epidemiological (WBE) surveillance is a promising method to assess the pandemic situation in highly populated areas with limited clinical tests. This study in Gandhinagar, India found SARS-CoV-2 RNA in wastewater samples, demonstrating the potential of WBE surveillance to predict COVID-19 case fluctuations.

Duration of SARS-CoV-2 viral shedding in faeces as a parameter for wastewater-based epidemiology: Re-analysis of patient data using a shedding dynamics model

Fuminari Miura et al.

Summary: Wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) is a promising approach for monitoring the spread of COVID-19, with the concentration of virus in faeces and its temporal variations being crucial information. Results show that temporal variations in virus concentration in faeces affect monitoring systems like WBE, emphasizing the need for adjusting estimates of virus concentration.

Wastewater monitoring outperforms case numbers as a tool to track COVID-19 incidence dynamics when test positivity rates are high

Xavier Fernandez-Cassi et al.

Summary: The study found that wastewater monitoring can more accurately track the timing and shape of COVID-19 infection peaks, while confirmed cases provide a better estimate of the subsequent decline in infections. Under conditions of high test positivity rates, wastewater-based epidemiology provides critical information that complements clinical data in monitoring the pandemic trajectory.

Developing a Flexible National Wastewater Surveillance System for COVID-19 and Beyond

Aparna Keshaviah et al.

Summary: Wastewater testing is a cost-effective strategy for measuring population disease prevalence and health behaviors, providing early warning for outbreaks like COVID-19. Building a flexible framework for wastewater sampling, testing, and reporting can prevent unnecessary system overhauls for future infectious disease, chronic disease, and drug epidemics as U.S. federal agencies establish a National Wastewater Surveillance System.

Early-pandemic wastewater surveillance of SARS-CoV-2 in Southern Nevada: Methodology, occurrence, and incidence/prevalence considerations

Daniel Gerrity et al.

Summary: The study aimed to compare virus recovery and detection methods, detect and quantify SARS-CoV-2 genetic material in two sewersheds in Southern Nevada, and understand the link between COVID-19 incidence/prevalence and wastewater concentrations of SARS-CoV-2 RNA. Different methods and target water matrices led to varying virus recovery rates and sample volumes, impacting sensitivity and reported concentrations. Composite sampling showed a significant increase in concentration compared to grab samples, indicating diurnal variability in SARS-CoV-2 signal. Detection and quantification of genetic markers in sewage showed comparability with public health data in early pandemic stages.
