Abstract in brief

The study aimed to monitor the presence of SARS-CoV-2 on surfaces, sewage, and PPE in hospital isolation wards, using swab tests and PCR techniques, during the COVID-19 outbreak at a Chinese hospital.
While SARS-CoV-2 RNA was found in some sewage samples (particularly at the inlet of disinfection pools), no viral RNA was detected on surfaces, staff PPE, or patient respiratory samples, and no live virus was cultured from sewage.
The findings suggest that rigorous disinfection protocols effectively reduced the risk of surface and staff infection, even when viral RNA was present in sewage sources.]
