At the end of last week, the virus was less present among samples taken from wastewater, compared to the previous week.
According to the most recent update from the Coronastep study, the virus presence had reduced at the following treatment plants: Beggen, Schifflange, Mersch, Bettembourg, Troisvierges and Boevange-sur-Attert.
However, the presence had risen in Hesperange, Grevenmacher, Echternach, Wiltz, Bleesbruck and Übersyren.
The research team underlined that, in spite of the slight reduction, the values were still measuring extremely high, which indicated a strong virus prevalence in the country's wastewater. As of last week, scientists have been measuring the virus presence at sewage treatment plants twice a week, to better follow the development of the pandemic.
