Abstract

An abstract presented at the Eighth International Meeting on Emerging Diseases and Surveillance (IMED 2021), November 4-6, 2021, Virtual Meeting. Wastewater-based epidemiology complements and strengthens traditional surveillance, with significant implications for public health. Using wastewater to quantify infection prevalence requires knowledge of additional meta-data and outbreak detection needs to account for unexplained aberrations in wastewater data to improve reliability.
