Assessing the Impact of Wastewater Flow Rates on SARS‐CoV‐2 RNA Detection: Insights for Environmental Surveillance and Policymaking

Environmental Quality Management, Volume 35, Issue 4, Summer 2026.
We meta‐analyzed 10 studies to assess whether influent flow rate affects SARS‐CoV‐2 RNA detection in wastewater treatment plants serving ≤60,000 inhabitants. The pooled odds ratio (2.08; 95% CI: 0.994–37; p = 0.053) showed no significant association between flow rate and detection probability.
