Time series modelling for wastewater-based epidemiology of COVID-19: A nationwide study in 40 wastewater treatment plants of Belgium, February 2021 to June 2022
Secondly, adjusted WBE metrics at different lag times were used to predict incident COVID-19 cases. Model selection was based on AIC c minimization. Results: In 3¾0 WWTP s, RNA levels were best explained by ...
Wastewater monitoring can anchor global disease surveillance systems
monitored predominantly urban populations. In high-income countries (HIC s), composite sampling at centralised treatment plants was most common, whereas grab sampling from surface waters, open drains, and pit ...

vaccinated having received the last dose (eventually a booster) longer than 3 months ago, these percentages were respectively 93.8% and 95.7% Among people who had not received any COVID-19 vaccine at all the ...
Prevalence of Anti-SARS-CoV-2 Antibodies and Potential Determinants among the Belgian Adult Population: Baseline Results of a Prospective Cohort Study
74,2% to 98.8%; among the unvaccinated, the seroprevalence remained stable (around 17%). Among the vaccinated, factors significantly associated with the presence of antibodies were: having at least one ...
Prevalence of anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies in the general population in Belgium: First results of the SalivaHIS study
community dwelling population aged 18 years and above had developed anti- SARS-CoV-2 antibodies. This percentage was 98.9% among fully vaccinated people (since at least 2 weeks before being tested) and 28.9% ...

The Relation between Perceived and Actual Understanding and Adherence: Results from a National Survey on COVID-19 Measures in Belgium.
about COVID-19 measures should put more focus on trying to improve the understanding of the measures, instead of only making them known, particularly for those who are less health literate and as such at ...
Early high antibody-titre convalescent plasma for hospitalised COVID-19 patients: DAWn-plasma.
trials have studied convalescent plasma (CP) for COVID-19 using different protocols, with different SARS-CoV-2 neutralising-antibody-titres, at different time-points and severities of illness. METHODS: In ...
