Harnessing wastewater-based surveillance (WBS) in Africa: a historic turning point towards strengthening the pandemic control

Abstract Curbing infectious diseases has been a significant challenge worldwide, with existing conventional surveillance systems presenting gaps in providing timely and spatial information, which undermines prevention and control. This has propelled the use of Wastewater-Based surveillance (WBS), a...
