From Sewers to Solutions: Transforming Public Health Through Wastewater Surveillance Success Stories

Over the past few years, wastewater-based surveillance (WBS) has rapidly emerged as a valuable tool in public health, providing community-level insights on infectious diseases, substances of potential abuse and other agents of interest. Join our discussion with guest speakers Dr. Natalie Prystajecky, Head of Microbiology at the BC Centre for Disease Control and Dr. Robert Delatolla, Full Professor University of Ottawa and CIHR Applied Public Health Chair in Environment, Climate Change and One Health as they highlight wastewater surveillance success stories from across Canada. This webinar will be delivered in English only. The presentation will be followed by a Q&A session. By the end of this webinar, participants will be able to: -Learn about some of the success stories from Canada’s wastewater surveillance system. -Identify the key stakeholders involved, weaknesses and strengths, actions triggered and how they inform public health decision-making. -Discuss measurable impacts, such as reduced transmission, improved public health decisions, community benefits, and cost savings.
