Wastewater Surveillance: Expanding Microbes of Interest Monitoring Beyond SARS-CoV-2

Wastewater surveillance is an emerging science that can be a critical public health tool for infectious disease surveillance. However, it is currently limited by a lack of standardized methods, variability in results, and analytical tools to interpret the data. The project discussed in this webinar aimed to compare methods for wastewater surveillance, which are not only sensitive and robust enough to reliably detect multiple pathogens from sample matrices in densely populated areas, but are also cost-effective and feasible to carry out in a low-resource setting.
