SARS-CoV2 variant analysis in wastewater in six Swedish cities from 2021-2022

ABSTRACT: SARS-CoV-2 genome can be detected in faeces samples from COVID-19 patients using molecular methods. Therefore, monitoring SARS CoV-2 in wastewater could provide early surveillance of disease prevalence at a population-wide level, referred to as wastewater-based epidemiology. High-throughput sequencing of SARS-CoV2 in wastewater can provide information on SARS-CoV2 variants circulating in the population and act as an early warning system for the introduction of new variants of concern. The data presented here were generated by the two wastewater laboratories of SEEC (The Swedish Environmental Epidemiology Center): * SEEC-SLU: Samples from Uppsala, Örebro, Umeå, and Kalmar are analysed at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU) node led by associate professor Anna J. Székely
