Therefore, it is imperative to understand the potential exposure and transmission risk of this virus in sludge for the sake of public health. While limited evidence was found that sludge would play an essential role in SARS-CoV-2 transmission, there is still a need to understand the fate of coronaviruses outside the human host, including their persistence and inactivation mechanisms in 5 sludge, which would help to reveal their potential risks during sludge treatment and disposal.
