SARS-CoV-2 Titers in Wastewater Are Higher than Expected from Clinically Confirmed Cases
21 Jul 2020
Abstract excerpt
Wastewater-based surveillance is a promising approach for proactive outbreak monitoring. SARS-CoV-2 is shed in stool early in the clinical course and infects a large asymptomatic population, making it an ideal target for wastewater-based monitoring. In this study, we develop a laboratory protocol to quantify viral titers in raw sewage via qPCR analysis and validate results with sequencing analysis. Our results...
