WHO launches two documents on surveillance of SARS-COV-2 in wastewater

Friends,
Routine diagnostic surveillance for COVID-19 has been augmented with environmental surveillance (ES) in wastewater in many locations. This week, WHO launched a  Question & Answer  document for a general audience and  Interim Guidance  targeted at public health officials who want to understand and integrate complementary ES into COVID-19 control strategies.
The guidance provides advice on situations where environmental surveillance has been shown to add value to public health decision making, what is needed to plan and coordinate an effective programme, and how to carry out data collection, analysis, interpretation and communication of results.
