Wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) has been an important tool for population surveillance during the COVID-19 pandemic and continues to play a key role in monitoring SARS-CoV-2 infection levels following reductions national clinical testing schemes. Studies measuring decay profiles of wastewater have underscored value WBE, however investigations hampered by high biosafety requirements studies. Therefore, surrogate viruses with lower standards used studies, such as murine hepatitis virus (MHV), but few studies directly compared rates both viruses. We persistence MHV wastewater, using TCID50 RT-qPCR assays assess infectious titre viral gene markers, respectively. Infectious indicate similar endpoints, observed early characteristics differed, decaying more rapidly than MHV, raising questions about suitability wastewater. This study further highlights importance ongoing other pathogens sample preparation rate overestimation.

Human Adenovirus (hAdv) infections are currently at a surge in India with West Bengal holding prominent place.Patient cohort majority being children getting reported flue like symptoms, low oxygen level and upper respiratory tract infection.Diarrhoea pink eyes also noted.Clinical manifestations by different serotypes of the aforementioned DNA virus were previously confined to multifaceted mild symptoms but recently taking serious toll mainly due mutant varieties virus.Since contamination spreads through droplet infection faecal-oral route, personal hygiene holds most superior preventive measure.Patient infective swabs, stool and/or blood can be tested for presence hAdv diagnostic methods, PCR based techniques commonly followed pathological laboratories.Number patients both paediatric adults admitted hospitals increasing reports infection.Treatments specific clinical provided cases, whereas certain drugs Ganciclovir Ribavirin used treat severe infections, variable success rate.Drug Cidofovir had shown some degree moderate treatment immune-compromised patients.However, no has been till date infection.
