Wastewater testing can inform public health action as a component of polio outbreak response. During 2022-2023, total 7 US jurisdictions (5 states and 2 cities) participated in prospective or retrospective wastewater for poliovirus after paralytic case was identified New York state. Two distinct vaccine-derived type viruses were detected from state City during 2022, representing separate importation events. Of those viruses, 1 resulted persistent community transmission multiple counties case. No the other participating (Connecticut, Jersey, Michigan, Illinois Chicago, IL). The value routine surveillance apart an is unclear. However, these results highlight ongoing risk importations into United States need to identify undervaccinated communities increase vaccination coverage prevent polio.
