cord-350242-4u1iyf0p	Yaniv, K.	City-level SARS-CoV-2 sewage surveillance	2020-10-21		.txt	text/plain	2017	140	61	In this study we sampled an urban wastewater infrastructure in the city of Ashkelon, Israel, during the end of the first COVID-19 wave in May 2020 when the number of infections seemed to be waning. Using the linear equation, we calculated copy number of N1 gene in sewage samples reported in this study. If the sampling is extended to 24 hours, then the NVL can be expressed as number of SARS-CoV-2 RNA copies per 1,000 people per day. Ashkelon was chosen for surveillance of SARS-CoV-2 in sewage due to a relatively low COVID-19 prevalence during the time of study following a national lockdown period during Table S1 ). In conclusion, we present a proof-of-concept study demonstrating the feasibility of SARS-CoV-2 RNA detection in raw sewage originating from the city sewer system that reflects virus circulation in the assessed area.	./cache/cord-350242-4u1iyf0p.txt	./txt/cord-350242-4u1iyf0p.txt
