A health expert in Alberta is warning of another COVID-19 wave as provincial wastewater data suggests transmission is trending upward.

An upward trend in the amount of COVID-19 virus in Calgary wastewater should caution people to more closely monitor the level of risk they’re taking.

Traces of the polio virus were found in sewage samples in Beit Shemesh, Modi’in Illit and Tiberias.

The viral RNA load of coronavirus in Saskatoon’s wastewater has decreased by 43.7 per cent with Omicron remaining the dominant variant, according to University of Saskatchewan researchers.

A CDC database of sewage data from communities around the nation could provide earlier warning of outbreaks and new viral variants.

More than 80 continuing-care homes in the Calgary region are currently in COVID-19 outbreak protocols as the Omicron variant continues to spread rapidly across Alberta.

Resistomap has partnered up with C.E.C. Analytics to make wastewater monitoring for hospitals more effective.

Scientists say testing what Calgarians flush down the toilet could fill the void left by diminished COVID-19 testing numbers in getting a sense of just how much of the virus is in Calgary.

More than a year into surveilling sewage for outbreaks, scientists have a better idea of what the approach can—and can’t—tell us about the health of communities

Researchers at the University of Waterloo are taking a unique approach to COVID-19 testing.

Wastewater tracking was used before the pandemic to monitor for polio and illicit drug use, but interest in the field and its applications has now ballooned.
