Presence of SARS-Coronavirus-2 RNA in Sewage and Correlation with Reported COVID-19 Prevalence in the Early Stage of the Epidemic in the Netherlands
TL;DR: The detection of the virus RNA in sewage, even when the CO VID-19 prevalence is low, and the correlation between concentration in sewage and reported prevalence of COVID-19, indicate that sewage surveillance could be a sensitive tool to monitor the circulation of theirus in the population.
Journal ArticleDOI

Journal ArticleDOI
Assessment of the risk of infection by Cryptosporidium or Giardia in drinking water from a surface water source
TL;DR: This first evaluation of the calculation of the risk of infection due to exposure to Cryptosporidium oocysts and Giardia cysts via drinking water shows that the uncertainty in the estimated removal efficiency of the treatment process dominates over uncertainities in other contributing factors.

Presence of SARS-Coronavirus-2 in sewage
TL;DR: The detection of the virus in sewage, even when the COVID-19 incidence is low, indicates that sewage surveillance could be a sensitive tool to monitor the circulation of theirus in the population.
Journal ArticleDOI
Implementation of environmental surveillance for SARS-CoV-2 virus to support public health decisions: opportunities and challenges.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reviewed the strength of evidence, opportunities and challenges for the application of sewage surveillance to inform public health decision-making, including sampling sites, strategies, sample transport, storage and quantification methods, together with the approach and evidence base for quantifying prevalence of infection from measured wastewater concentration.
