Abstract

A promising and novel method for measuring a wide range of illicit drugs consumed in communities is wastewaterbased epidemiology. Wastewater-based epidemiology is a promising method for comprehending the prevalence of viruses at the community level, just like it is for illegal drugs. Due to the need for extensive laboratory testing, the ongoing coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic placed an unprecedented strain on diagnostic and public health laboratories worldwide. A centralized wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) approach, in which samples are collected at WWTPs, has been shown to be applicable in numerous studies.
