TL;DR: In this paper , a scalable solution for wastewater genomic surveillance that allows early detection of SARS-CoV-2 variants and identification of cryptic transmission was proposed, in the controlled environment of a large university campus and the broader context of the surrounding county.

TL;DR: Analysis of the genomic diversity of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) early in the coronav virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic indicates that it is unlikely that SARS- covirus-2 circulated widely in humans prior to November 2019 and defines the narrow window between when Sars-Cov-2 first jumped into humans and when the first cases of CO VID-19 were reported.

TL;DR: ViReflow as discussed by the authors is a user-friendly consensus sequence reconstruction pipeline enabling rapid analysis of viral sequence datasets leveraging Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud compute resources and the Reflow system.

TL;DR: The goal is to summarize the fundamental algorithms that are employed in the literature to then highlight the challenges that have affected accelerator implementations in practice, and provide insights into the potential of emerging hardware platforms and algorithms for MD.

TL;DR: In this article , the effectiveness and accuracy of community-based passive wastewater and surface (environmental) surveillance to detect SARS-CoV-2 infection in neighborhood schools compared to weekly diagnostic (PCR) testing was evaluated.
