Wiesbaden, HE analyzing wastewater samples for COVID
In Progress
The City of Wiesbaden implemented a new wastewater monitoring system to reduce the spread of the coronavirus. The process involves examining weekly samples from the municipal sewage treatment plants to detect SARS-CoV-2 viruses and variants. These samples serve as an early warning system that detects an increase in coronavirus infections in the local population. These wastewater samples are not influenced by limited test availability and detect the virus in untested asymptomatic individuals.
