Wastewater-Based Surveillance in LMICs: Perspective from Sample Collection to Public Health Action

2026-06-02

Abstract excerpt

Wastewater-based surveillance (WBS) has emerged as a promising population-level monitoring tool for a wide range of pathogens and serves as a cost-effective complement to clinical surveillance. However, the evidence base supporting current WBS practices has been generated almost exclusively in high-income countries (HICs) with established laboratory infrastructure, reliable cold-chain logistics, functional sewerag...
