Wastewater as early warning system for COVID-19 surveillance
This project aims at optimising an analytical protocol for the detection of SARS-CoV-2 RNA in wastewater. This will then applied to wastewater samples collected across Belgium to investigate the early warning character of the methodology. Triangulation of the wastewater data with other datasets (e.g. hospital data, infections) will be performed to investigate the complementarity of the data.
