Abstract

In June 2020, a national Wastewater Monitoring Programme for COVID-19 was established in Scotland. The system was established to support the emergency COVID-19 pandemic response. At the time, the programme was found to have successfully monitored SARS-CoV-2 trends and informed modelling exercises to understand the spread and potential impact of COVID-19 in Scotland. There is now a need to reassess whether the system is effectively supporting the current public health needs of Scotland.
