Long-term wastewater-based surveillance and impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on drug use trends in a US Northeast rural town

Jiayue Luo et al.

Summary: This study presents findings from a two-year wastewater-based surveillance on drug use, showing objective evidence on the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on drug use in a rural community. All target drugs were detected at 100% frequency in wastewater samples. The study found that the consumption of cocaine, morphine, and amphetamine was highest, while MDMA, MDEA, and hydrocodone had the lowest consumption. Most drug consumption increased during the pandemic period, with the highest increase observed for MDMA (286%). Methadone and cocaine consumption decreased slightly (6% and 7% respectively). These results highlight the utility of wastewater-based approaches in monitoring long-term drug use trends.

An Overview of Japanese Encephalitis in Australia: Trends, Impact and Interventions

Faith A. A. Kwa et al.

Summary: Japanese Encephalitis (JE) is a vector-borne disease caused by the Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV), predominantly found in Southeast Asia and leading to long-term neurological and psychiatric sequelae in both adults and children. Despite vaccination efforts, JEV infection remains a global problem, with recent outbreaks outside of Asia. Thus, collaborative research and a globally unified disease control strategy are urgently needed to improve JEV transmission and surveillance and better prepare for future outbreaks.

The Emergence of Japanese Encephalitis Virus in Australia in 2022: Existing Knowledge of Mosquito Vectors

Andrew F. van den Hurk et al.

Summary: In early 2022, Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) was found to be the cause of stillborn and mummified piglets in pig farms in southeastern Australia. Human cases and infected piglets in other pig farms were subsequently identified across a wide area. The primary vectors of JEV in Australia should be considered as members of the Culex sitiens subgroup, particularly Culex annulirostris. Information on other mosquito species and additional factors that could impact JEV transmission are also discussed.

Emergence of Japanese encephalitis in Australia: a diagnostic perspective

David Pham et al.

Summary: The outbreak of Japanese encephalitis in mainland Australia is of high clinical and public health significance. This review provides an overview of available diagnostic methods for Japanese encephalitis virus and explores the role of mosquito, veterinary, and human surveillance in the laboratory response to the disease. A collaborative and coordinated One Health approach is required for optimal disease response and control, as Japanese encephalitis may become endemic in Australia.

Monitoring human arboviral diseases through wastewater surveillance: Challenges, progress and future opportunities

Wei Lin Lee et al.

Summary: Arboviral diseases, spread by infected arthropods, have significant economic and social impacts, with dengue, Zika, west nile fever, and yellow fever being the most prominent. The frequency and geographical extent of arboviral epidemics have been increasing in recent decades, and this trend is expected to continue due to climate change and urbanization. However, the actual prevalence of arboviral diseases is often underestimated due to a large number of asymptomatic cases. Existing surveillance systems rely on passive reporting and infrequent laboratory confirmation, leading to the need for alternative methods such as wastewater-based surveillance (WBS). This review explores the feasibility of using WBS to monitor arboviral diseases, discussing factors such as viral shedding loads, persistence in sewage, and recovery efficiency. Furthermore, a simple model is provided to estimate the required volume of wastewater for arbovirus detection. Overall, this review highlights the challenges that need to be addressed for successful implementation of arboviral WBS.

Epidemiology and challenges of dengue surveillance in the WHO South-East Asia Region

Tsheten Tsheten et al.

Summary: Dengue presents a significant health and economic burden in the WHO South-East Asia Region, with an increasing incidence and hyper-endemicity of multiple virus serotypes/genotypes. The existing surveillance strategies are insufficient, with under-reporting of cases and a lack of integration between entomological and disease surveillance systems. Possible solutions include incorporating adult mosquito sampling, establishing laboratory-based sentinel surveillance, and integrating vector and dengue disease surveillance for improved prevention and control.

Co-circulation and misdiagnosis led to underestimation of the 2015-2017 Zika epidemic in the Americas

Rachel J. Oidtman et al.

Summary: The study examines the potential misdiagnosis between Zika, dengue, and chikungunya during the 2015-2017 epidemic, with estimated cases recalculated based on diagnostic accuracy. It suggests that misdiagnosis was more prevalent in countries with higher proportions of dengue and chikungunya cases. The results highlight the importance of accurate diagnosis in understanding and tracking the epidemiology of these co-circulating diseases.

Passive Sampling of SARS-CoV-2 for Wastewater Surveillance

Christelle Schang et al.

Summary: Passive samplers have shown the potential to detect SARS-CoV-2 in wastewater and demonstrate the ability for early detection of infections at various scales. Compared to traditional sampling methods, passive samplers showed higher sensitivity, with positive results when the SARS-CoV-2 concentration in wastewater exceeded 1.8 gene copies per mL.

Persistence of Dengue (Serotypes 2 and 3), Zika, Yellow Fever, and Murine Hepatitis Virus RNA in Untreated Wastewater

Franciscus Chandra et al.

Summary: Arboviruses, viral pathogens transmitted by blood-borne vectors, impose a great social and economic burden globally. Clinical surveillance of arbovirus outbreaks often underestimates prevalence due to subclinical cases. Wastewater surveillance shows potential for assessing arboviral outbreaks by detecting viral RNA persistence at different temperatures.
