Pandemics deeply affect the health and economy of
the world population. A precise determination of
affected communities is of great importance to
establish containment measures and reduce the economic impact. Here, we propose the development of
Units for Vigilance of Emerging Diseases based on
the screening of pathogens released to wastewater
treatment plants to follow the spread of the infectious agent to determine the location of infected people.
