Abstract

This collection of studies examines critical aspects of waterborne viruses, covering advanced detection methods and emerging technologies to prevent outbreaks. It explores the global prevalence and re-emergence of these viruses, their occurrence in environmental waters and shellfish, and their impact on public health. The reviews discuss epidemiological trends, risk assessment in recreational waters, and the persistence and inactivation mechanisms of enteric viruses, providing comprehensive insights into surveillance, control, and public health protection.
