Dynamic SARS-CoV-2 surveillance model combining seroprevalence and wastewater concentrations for post-vaccine disease burden estimates by Rochelle H. Holm, Grzegorz A. Rempala, Boseung Choi, J. Michael Brick, Alok R. Amraotkar, Rachel J. Keith, Eric C. Rouchka, Julia H. Chariker, Kenneth E. Palmer, Ted Smith, Aruni Bhatnagar
