Next generation sequencing (NGS) analysis based on environmental surveillance has been proved to be an effective method in norovirus surveillance.
Methods: Between January 2019 and December 2021, 36 sewage samples were collected and analyzed using real-time quantitative PCR to detect noroviruses.

Human noroviruses (HNoVs) are a leading cause of acute gastroenteritis worldwide, with significant public health implications. In this study, wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) was used to monitor the circulation and genetic diversity of HNoVs in Rome over an eight-year period (2017-2024). A total of 337 wastewater samples were analyzed using RT-nested PCR and next-generation sequencing (NGS) to identify genogroups GI and GII and their respective genotypes.
