Hi all…it seems that there are COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) webinars almost weekly. While this one also has a wastewater focus, there will be some information on the fate of the virus in the aquatic environment. Note that the webinar is at 10:00 EST tomorrow morning (July 9) and that space appears to be quite limited. However, as with other seminars it is being recorded and access will be available soon. Scroll down for the link to register.
