The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has prompted a lot of questions globally regarding the range of information about the virus's possible routes of transmission, diagnostics, and therapeutic tools. Worldwide studies have pointed out the importance of monitoring and early surveillance techniques based on the identification of viral RNA in wastewater. These studies indicated the presence of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) RNA in human feces, which is shed excreta including mucus, feces, saliva, and sputum. Subsequently, they get dumped into wastewater, and their presence in wastewater provides a possibility of using it as a tool to help prevent and eradicate the virus. Its monitoring is still done in many regions worldwide and serves as an early "warning signal"; however, a lot of limitations of wastewater surveillance have also been identified.
2019 年冠状病毒病（COVID-19）大流行在全球范围内引发了大量关于该病毒可能传播途径、诊断和治疗工具的信息。全球范围内的研究指出，基于在废水中识别病毒 RNA 进行监测和早期预警技术的重要性。这些研究表明，在人类粪便中存在严重急性呼吸综合征冠状病毒 2（SARS-CoV-2）RNA，它是由粘液、粪便、唾液和痰液等排泄物排出的。随后，它们被排入废水，而废水中存在的病毒为将其用作帮助预防和消除病毒的工具提供了可能性。目前全球许多地区仍在对其进行监测，并将其作为一种早期的“预警信号”；然而，也已经发现了废水监测的许多局限性。
