Abstract in brief

  • The study measured levels of various human viral nucleic acids, including SARS-CoV-2, influenza, RSV, mpox, and norovirus, in the wastewater solids from 12 treatment plants in Central California over nearly two years.
  • They used a scientific method called digital droplet RT-PCR to accurately detect and quantify these viruses' genetic material in the wastewater samples.
  • The data helps to track and understand how different diseases spread within communities by monitoring the presence of these viruses in wastewater.]
