Wastewater Monitoring of SARS-CoV-2 from Acute Care Hospitals Identifies Nosocomial Transmission and Outbreaks

2021-02-23

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> <h4>Background</h4> SARS-CoV-2 has been detected in wastewater and its abundance correlated with community COVID-19 cases, hospitalizations and deaths. We sought to use wastewater-based detection of SARS-CoV-2 to assess the epidemiology of SARS-CoV-2 in hospitals. <h4>Methods</h4> Between August and December 2020, twice-weekly wastewater samples from three tertiary-care hospitals (totaling >2100...
