Areas of dense population congregation are prone to experience respiratory virus outbreaks. We monitored wastewater and clinic patients for the presence viruses on a large, public university campus. Campus sewer systems were in 16 locations using next generation sequencing over 22 weeks 2023. During this period, we detected surge human adenovirus (HAdV) levels wastewater. Hence, initiated clinical surveillance at an on-campus from presenting with acute infection. From whole genome 123 throat and/or nasal swabs collected, identified outbreak HAdV, specifically HAdV-E4 HAdV-B7 genotypes overlapping time. The temporal dynamics proportions HAdV found corroborated infections. tracked specific single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) sequences showed that they arose signals concordant time presentation, linking community transmission outbreak. This study demonstrates how wastewater-based epidemiology can be integrated ambulatory healthcare settings monitor areas outbreaks provide health guidance.

Abstract The recent SARS‐CoV‐2 outbreak yielded substantial data regarding virus fate and prevalence at water reclamation facilities (WRFs), identifying influential factors as natural decay, adsorption, light, pH, salinity, antagonistic microorganisms. However, no studies have quantified the impact of these in full scale WRFs. Utilizing a mass balance approach, we assessed decay other mechanisms on genetic marker removal during reclamation, through use sludge wastewater loading estimates. Results indicated negligible markers P/PT (primary effluent (PE) p value: 0.267; preliminary primary treatment (P/PT) accumulation 0.904; thickened (TPS) 0.076) indicating contribution toward P/PT. Comparably, adsorption decomposition was found to be dominant pathway for (thickened waste activated (TWAS) log 9.75 10 GC/day); however, estimation could carried out due high detections TWAS. Practitioner Points approach suggested that are compared with ( 0.904). During (P/PT), higher viral load remained (14.16 GC/day) TPS (13.83 statistical difference observed 0.280) indicting adsorption/decomposition most probably did not occur. In secondary (ST), TWAS were consistently detected (13.41 (SE), longer HRT potential presence extracellular polymeric substance‐containing enriched biomass enabled adsorption/decomposition. Estimations total solids volatile affinity different between sampling locations <0.0001).
