Using viral genomics to estimate undetected infections and extent of superspreading events for COVID-19
LM Li et al MEDRXIV, June 7, 2020

This is the first study that incorporates both the viral genomes and time series case data in the estimation of undetected COVID-19 infections. Our findings suggest the presence of undetected infections broadly and that superspreading events are contributing less to observed dynamics than during the SARS epidemic in 2003.

Detection of SARS-Coronavirus-2 in wastewater, using the existing environmental surveillance network: An epidemiological gateway to an early warning for COVID-19 in communities.
S Sharif et al, MEDRXIV, June 7, 2020

78 wastewater samples collected from 38 districts across Pakistan, 74 wastewater samples from existing polio environment surveillance sites, were tested for presence of SARs-CoV-2. 21 wastewater samples (27%) from 13 districts turned to be positive on RT-qPCR. These findings strengthen the use of wastewater surveillance as an early warning system for COVID-19.
