I post a lot about #COVID19 risks based on wastewater data. Periodically, someone pops into my thread to suggest wastewater surveillance isn't reliable due to different variants. A new STUDY finds that “estimates of selective advantage and reproduction numbers derived from wastewater maintain their advantages over traditional clinical data, even when there are differences in shedding among variants.”
