Description

Your poop says a lot about you!


Every zombie movie starts the same. One infected person acts as if everything is just fine:


"I'm coughing blood? Nah, let me hide it, pretend I'm fine and go hug thousands of people in a football arena!"


But is it only fiction?


We've seen it with CoVid: there's objectively not much you can do to detect a disease's outbreak unless people voluntarily get tested, assuming they acknowledge soon enough that they're sick!


And still, we've also seen with CoVid, that if we had looked at the right place at the right time, we would have noticed infection spikes weeks before they became visible in hospitals.


How? Well, by sampling our wastewater. When we're infected, viruses also travel to our pee and poo. And sewage networks are among the few links that bring large groups together.


Investigating those places is called wastewater-based epidemiology, and it was widely adopted throughout the recent pandemic, sometimes even influencing some government policies. 


Would it detect zombie cases? I don't know, but for sure: your poop says a lot about you.
