CLEAN : Scientists in Stockholm test wastewater for traces of Covid-19

The video discusses the detection of the source code 2 virus in wastewater treatment plants in Stockholm. It explains the process of collecting samples, monitoring virus trends, and analyzing the RNA of the virus. The project aims to detect the virus earlier than traditional healthcare methods and gather insights on virus spread across different areas.

What is the primary focus of the study conducted at the wastewater treatment plants in Stockholm?

• To improve water purification methods

• To detect the source code 2 virus

• To analyze chemical pollutants

• To study the effects of climate change

When did the researchers first detect virus particles in the wastewater?

• Week 25

• Week 20

• Week 16

• Week 10

What was the reason for not detecting the virus during the summer?

• The virus was eradicated

• The samples were contaminated

• The virus was below detection limits

• The equipment was faulty

Where are the wastewater samples analyzed for virus particles?

• National Health Institute

• City Hall Laboratory

• KTH Wastewater Center

• Stockholm University

What is extracted from the virus in the wastewater samples for analysis?

• Lipids

• RNA

• Proteins

• DNA

How does the project aim to benefit public health?

• By reducing water pollution

• By providing early virus detection
